The Noblesville community is invited to explore the area’s first new high school stadium in over 50 years at the Beaver Stadium Grand Opening BASH from 5 to 8 p.m. on July 29.
Attendees will have the opportunity to tour the facility and take photos on the field, as well as enjoy all the traditional Back to School BASH fun, including food vendors, live music, sports, games, community booths, Miller gear, and much more.
Beaver Stadium, located off Field Drive behind Noblesville High School, will be home to Miller football, band, track, and other activities.

The high school’s previous facility was built in 1969 when Noblesville’s population was 12 percent of what it is today, and school officials say it had long been too small to accommodate the community’s needs.
A new stadium build was found to be more cost effective than adding on to the existing facility. The district financed the approximately $14 million project through a bond (loan) with no referendum dollars, no increase to the tax rate, and no use of student or staff funding.
The new Beaver Stadium includes:
- 50 percent more seating to provide needed space for fans and visitors
- Expanded concessions and restrooms
- On-site parking
- Location on the high school campus to allow for safe access to the field
- Redesigned crowd flow to better monitor and manage large student groups
- Enhanced LED lighting
- Locker rooms for home and away teams
- Up-to-date broadcast technology capabilities
- Practice fields
- Athletic training space
- Additional storage
Select community partners will also be invited to attend a formal stadium dedication event this summer.
