Lucas Oil Stadium was developed by the Indiana Stadium and Convention Building Authority, a group of civic and business leaders appointed by the Governor of Indiana and the Mayor of Indianapolis.

The stadium was designed by HKS of Dallas, Texas, with significant assistance from local design firms such as A2S04 and Browning Day Mullins Dierdorf of Indianapolis and other Indiana design and engineering consultants.

The floor is 92,260 sq. ft. in size and 25' below street level. Retractable and removable seating and swing space adds 46,250 sq. ft. of exhibit space when it is needed.

There is also a 200 seat Quarterback Suite featuring a custom horseshoe bar. Finally, two 30,000 sq. ft. multi-level lounges are also part of Lucas Oil Stadium's impressive array of luxury suites.

NFL rules for roof opening – Home team determines if roof is to be opened or closed 90 minutes before kickoff (except if precipitation is within the vicinity of LOS, temperature is below 40 degrees, or wind gusts are greater than 40 mph, then roof is automatically closed). It remains open unless there are hazardous conditions (lightning, severe winds, precipitation, low temperatures, etc.). Once the decision has been made to close the roof it may not be reopened.
