GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) — Lambeau Field was evacuated Tuesday afternoon because of a fire in one of the stadium’s locker rooms.
Lt. Shauna Walesh of the Green Bay Metro Fire Department says crews were called to the Packers’ stadium just before 2:20 p.m. When crews arrived, they found fire in the third locker room — not the Packers’ or the visitors’ locker room. The building’s sprinkler system had mostly put out the fire, and firefighters were able to quickly extinguish the remaining fire.
The fire marshal’s office is investigating the cause of the fire.
No one was injured, Walesh said.
The third locker room at Lambeau Field was built in 2024 for non-NFL events. The third locker room cost about $5 million. The stadium district paid $2.97 million of that, using ticket tax revenue from Lambeau Field events. The Packers paid the remaining $2 million.
