Reading time: 1 minute
The Montgomery Catfish, the state’s brand-new professional arena football team, has revealed Montgomery’s Garrett Coliseum as its official host venue for its debut season in 2027.
Team officials made the announcement over the Labor Day weekend.
Located at 1555 Federal Dr., the historic 12,500-seat multi-purpose arena has hosted concerts, rodeos and sporting events for decades. Securing the familiar community hub marks a huge piece of the puzzle as organizers prepare for kickoff.
The Montgomery Catfish’s choice of venue brings a sense of nostalgia for longtime sports followers across the city. Garrett Coliseum will feel instantly familiar to those who remember it hosting the capital city’s previous indoor football franchises, the Montgomery Maulers and the Montgomery Bears in the 2000s.
