From the blog
What the monthly change log is for
Every altered value gets a permanent record. Here is why that matters more than the data being right on any given day.
Reading the naming-rights data without getting it wrong
Naming-rights figures look precise and usually are not. What the deal value, term and start-date fields in this dataset actually mean.
Owner, operator, tenant: three different organizations
Most venue lists collapse ownership into one column. That single choice is where the majority of published stadium ownership data goes wrong.

Questions about the data
What venues does this site cover?
Stadiums, arenas, indoor arenas, amphitheatres and motorsport circuits with a capacity of 10,000 or more, plus every current home venue of a club in the competitions listed in the methodology. This build holds 6568 venues across 192 countries.
Where does the ownership and sponsorship data come from?
Wikidata (CC0) supplies the venue backbone, OpenStreetMap (ODbL) the location and footprint, and Wikipedia (CC BY-SA 4.0) the ownership detail and naming history. Every ownership, naming and sponsorship row carries the source URL it came from and a confidence level.
How often is it updated?
Once a month. The pipeline runs on the 1st at 03:00 America/Vancouver, writes every altered value to a change log, and publishes a permanent page for that month. The current build was generated on 4 November 2026.
Can I download the data?
Yes. The venue table offers CSV and JSON of whatever view you have filtered to, and the raw JSON files the site itself is built from are linked in the footer.
