History
Construction on the new stadium was originally scheduled to begin in the summer of 2019, but after delays, groundbreaking was later rescheduled to October 10, 2019. Upon completion of the stadium, Historic Crew Stadium was redeveloped into the training center of Columbus Crew.
The first game in the facility was on July 3, 2021, and resulted in a 2–2 draw between the Crew and the New England Revolution. Parts of the stadium were still under construction at the time. The first goal in stadium history was scored by Tajon Buchanan of New England; Columbus' first goal was scored by Gyasi Zardes during the same match. The Crew earned their first win at the new stadium with a 2–1 victory over New York City FC on July 17, 2021.
ScottsMiracle-Gro Field is owned by the Confluence Community Authority (CCA), a special district governed by the City of Columbus and Franklin County. The Crew have a 30-year lease with the CCA with an annual rent of $10 and an option to purchase the stadium outright in 2047 for 30 percent of its market value.
Naming rights for the facility are held by Scotts Miracle-Gro Company, based in Marysville, Ohio, through an agreement announced on November 25, 2025. The stadium was renamed to ScottsMiracle-Gro Field on the same date. For its first five seasons, the facility was known as Lower.com Field through a naming rights deal with Columbus-based online mortgage lender Lower.com. The agreement with Lower.com was announced June 15, 2021, just prior to the stadium's opening.
On February 3, 2026, the organizing committee of the 2028 Summer Olympics announced that ScottsMiracle-Gro Field was selected as one of six stadiums to host preliminary matches of the Olympic soccer tournaments; during the course of the Olympic Games, the stadium will be temporarily renamed to "Columbus Stadium" in accordance with IOC's policy on corporate-sponsored names.
