The Minnesota Vikings’ 2016-17 campaign will be played in their new stadium, marking a sign of new things to come for the team. U.S. Bank Stadium looks to be the real deal judging by some of the photos we’ve seen, but you can judge for yourself (below).

Sirius XM was able to get behind the scenes and revealed the stadium’s new nickname on Wednesday, and there’s a whole lot of purple going on there. As such, the stadium is appropriately named “Purple Heaven.”
