This Snack Stadium is the ultimate game day centerpiece, filled with delicious treats arranged around a football field taco dip. Perfect for a football party, it’s sure to score with your guests!
I am all about entertaining and making food when football season is here. I’m always looks for impressive ways to display the food such as a football party bar or this snack stadium. My family and friends always enjoy it.
Making a food football stadium is easier than you think and cost effective. Most of the items can be found in your home to build the ultimate snack stadium display.
The football food trays were made from cardboard soda boxes from the soda we had already bought for the party. We made goalposts out of straws and then filled the trays with our favorite foods.
Super easy and impressive to your guests!

How to Make a Football Snack Stadium
Cut 5 empty soda boxes in half, then cut each at an angle in the front. Line each box with aluminium foil and set aside.
Lay down the football field table runner on the table.
In a 9X13 baking dish, make game day taco dip but make the lettuce and olives the top layer and pipe the football field yard lines with sour cream. After chilling, place dip in the middle of the table runner.
To make the goal posts, cut two bendable straws to form a crossbar and join them. Punch a hole in the center and insert a straight piece from another straw. Secure with hot glue.
Place the straw goal posts at each end of the dip. Attach the goal post to the football field table runner with glue or tape.
Arrange the lined boxes around the dip and goal posts to form a stadium. Fill boxes with your favorite, snacks, fruits, vegetables, candy, desserts, etc.
Set up stack of soda cans in the corners of the stadium and dips if there are any.
Place football decorations around the stadium and enjoy!
