Lynchburg City Stadium is a sports venue located in
Calvin Falwell Field.[1] The Liberty Flames football program called the place home for 16 seasons until 1989, when the program moved back on campus to Williams Stadium
.
Over the years the stadium has been untouched, which left the stadium in disrepair. In 2014, the city decided to renovate the aging stadium, starting by replacing the natural grass with artificial turf. Other upgrades to the stadium included the press box, scoreboards, bleachers, PA system and other amenities. The renovations were slated to be completed in August 2016.[2] The stadium work completed in time for fall football in September 2016.
