'''Tim Hortons Field''' ({{langx|fr|Terrain Tim Hortons}}), nicknamed "'''The Donut Box'''", is a [[multi-purpose stadium]] in [[Hamilton, Ontario|Hamilton]], [[Ontario]], [[Canada]]. Completed in 2014 with a capacity of 22,500, it was built as a replacement on the same site as the [[Ivor Wynne Stadium]], which had been there since 1930. It is primarily used for [[Canadian football]] and soccer, and is the home of the [[Hamilton Tiger-Cats]] of the [[Canadian Football League]] and [[Forge FC]] of the [[Canadian Premier League]], amongst other teams. 

The stadium has also played host to the international soccer tournament at the [[Football at the 2015 Pan American Games|2015 Pan American Games]]. And it is a [[sport]]ing venue for various other sports and also music concerts.

==History==
===Background===
The former stadium on the site of the {{em|Tim Hortons Field}} had been in use for the Hamilton Tiger-Cats,<ref name=pan>{{cite web|title=Pan/Parapan News|url=http://www.panam2015.gov.on.ca/en/news.asp|work=Pan/Parapan American Games|publisher=Government of Ontario|access-date=June 21, 2013|date=June 7, 2013|archive-date=June 29, 2013|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130629120633/http://www.panam2015.gov.on.ca/en/news.asp|url-status=dead}}</ref> Canadian Football team since 1930. Originally called the 'Civic Stadium' ([[Ivor Wynne Stadium]]), it was in use until 2012. Whilst, the [[Hamilton Steelers (1958–1967)|Hamilton Steelers]] soccer team had played in the stadium since 1961 in the [[Eastern Canada Professional Soccer League]]. By 2011, the local councilors voted to partially demolish and renovate the stadium for the use of football and soccer as well as the then upcoming [[2015 Pan American Games]] in the [[Greater Toronto Area]], and they temporarily renamed the stadium ''CIBC Hamilton Pan Am Soccer Stadium''. The original plan was for a budget of {{CAD|115 million|link=yes}}.<ref>{{cite web |url= http://www.ticats.ca/page/history_ivorwynne |title= Ivor Wynne Stadium: History |publisher= Hamilton Tiger-Cats |access-date= 2013-11-24 |url-status= dead |archive-url= https://archive.today/20130101052341/http://www.ticats.ca/page/history_ivorwynne |archive-date= January 1, 2013 |df= mdy-all }}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url= https://www.cbc.ca/sports/football/cfl/hamilton-votes-for-a-city-report-on-renovating-ivor-wynne-1.1011546 |title= Hamilton votes for a city report on renovating Ivor Wynne |date=2011-01-13}}</ref><ref>{{cite web| url=https://forgefc.canpl.ca/stadium-profile/| website=forgefc.canpl.ca| title=Tim Hortons Field| access-date=8 August 2024}}</ref>

====Financial details====
In July 2013, a ten-year sponsorship deal was put in place with [[Tim Hortons]], who acquired the stadium's [[naming rights]]. The coffee beverage fast food chain was founded only a few blocks away from the stadium that originated in Hamilton some fifty years earlier.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.thespec.com/news-story/3889659-new-hamilton-stadium-to-be-called-tim-hortons-field/|title=New Hamilton stadium to be called Tim Hortons Field|newspaper=The Hamilton Spectator |publisher=TheSpec.com|date= July 11, 2013|access-date=July 11, 2013}}</ref><ref>{{cite web| url=https://company.timhortons.com/us/en/corporate/news-release.php?id=5795| website=company.timhortons.com| title=Tiger-Cats, Tim Hortons| access-date=8 August 2024}}</ref> The stadium's nickname is the donut box,<ref>{{cite news|title=Grant gets the first TD at The Donut Box |url=https://www.thespec.com/sports/ticats/2014/09/01/grant-gets-the-first-td-at-the-donut-box.html|newspaper=Hamilton Spectator|date=September 2, 2014|access-date=September 15, 2021}}</ref> it is a reference to the links to the coffee chain, and the rectangle shape of the stands layout.

The final financial details planned were that the stadium was built at a total cost of $145 million. The city of Hamilton contributed $54 million, the province of Ontario, $22 million, and the federal government of Canada, $69 million. Then, in 2014, the Tiger-Cats agreed to pay $1.2 million a year on a 20-year lease to be a tenant.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.thespec.com/news-story/3889891-goodbye-ivor-wynne-hello-tim-hortons-field/|title=Goodbye Ivor Wynne, hello Tim Hortons Field|newspaper=The Hamilton Spectator |publisher=TheSpec.com|date= July 12, 2013|access-date=July 14, 2013}}</ref>

===Stadium development===
In 2012, the 2015 Pan-Am organizers indicated that, due to financial constraints, they would be shifting their focus toward venues and "clusters" that could be used for multiple events, which might eliminate the need for a new stadium that would be used only for soccer, and they proposed another stadium on the campus of York University, tentatively named [[York Athletics Stadium]], to host the track and field events. That, coupled with a scheduling process that had soccer and [[rugby sevens]] events on different days (thus opening the possibility that Toronto's [[BMO Field]], which would house the rugby sevens contests in 2015 might also be able to host the soccer contests), had the potential to put the Hamilton stadium project in jeopardy.  Nonetheless, the Hamilton stadium project went forward as planned.{{fact|date=August 2024}}

Initial plans for the stadium were for it to be a principal Pan American stadium for soccer and track and field/athletics events. However, disputes between the Tiger-Cats owner, [[Bob Young (businessman)|Bob Young]], the organizers of the 2015 Pan American Games, and the [[Hamilton, Ontario|City of Hamilton]] arose over the location of the stadium,<ref>{{cite news |url=http://www.thespec.com/News/Local/article/668370 |title=Pan Ams will leave lasting legacy |date=November 9, 2009 |first=Daniel |last=Nolan |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20091109222641/http://www.thespec.com/News/Local/article/668370 |archive-date=November 9, 2009|work=Hamilton Spectator}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.tsn.ca/cfl/story/?id=330193 |title=Ticats have no interest in playing at West Harbour |publisher=The Sports Network |access-date=October 28, 2012}}</ref> among other things, including whether or not a running track should be built around the proposed stadium in Hamilton.{{fact|date=August 2024}} The plan was for the construction of the stadium in the Toronto GTA Steel Town to coincide with the Pan-Am Games, and all of the 32 men's and [[Women's association football|women's soccer]] games were played in the venue.<ref name=pan/>

===Construction and opening===
[[File:Lions at Tiger-Cats 2014.jpg|thumb|left|Stadium in October 2014, prior to the completion of the upper deck]]
The design was by architects [[CannonDesign]] and engineered by the [[Arup Group]], amongst other companies involved in its construction.

The CFL's [[Toronto Argonauts]] played two home games at Tim Hortons Field in 2015, due to clashes with the MLB's [[Toronto Blue Jays]] playoffs games.
