Fan Guide · Washington Commanders
Commanders football in the D.C. suburbs
Northwest Stadium in Landover, Maryland is the home of the Washington Commanders — a big-bowl suburban stadium outside the District, the gathering point for one of the NFL's most history-laden fan bases as the franchise looks toward a future home.
Most fans pair it with a trip into Washington itself — the monuments, the museums and the bars of the District a Metro ride away.
Below are the Washington-area stays, restaurants and bars fans use around the stadium.
Fan tip: The stadium is in the suburbs — many base in D.C. and use the Metro or drive in; build monument-and-museum time into the trip.
