Dallas – September 20, 2026 -- AT&T and the Dallas Cowboys have extended their partnership to overhaul network infrastructure and fan technology at AT&T Stadium ahead of the 2026 season, anchored by more than 261 miles of fiber and nearly 1,000 antennas across the venue.
AT&T builds the largest stadium fiber network in the country to handle 100,000-plus attendees
The company says the AT&T Stadium buildout represents the largest network of its kind in the U.S., supporting mobile ticketing, stadium operations and real-time video sharing when crowds exceed 100,000. AT&T Chairman and CEO John Stankey said the company is using "America's largest fiber network" to connect the venue, citing the firm's fiber-to-the-home household data as the basis for that ranking.
