Australia
In Australia, the most important distinction regarding outdoor stadiums is the shape of their fields:
- Oval stadiums — Generally used for cricket and Australian rules football. Can be used for rectangular-field sports, but seating arrangement is not necessarily optimal.
- Rectangular stadiums — Used for the rugby codes and soccer, and generally cannot be used for oval-field sports.
A few stadiums with oval fields have movable seating that can readily accommodate rectangular-field sports.

Aborted naming rights deals
At least two venues had naming rights deals in place, but the deals were canceled before the name was ever officially used:
- The University of Missouri announced that its new basketball arena, set to open in 2004, would be named Paige Sports Arena after Paige Laurie, daughter of major donors Bill and Nancy Laurie. However, when it was discovered that Paige had never earned a claimed degree from the University of Southern California, the university and the elder Lauries agreed to remove Paige's name from the venue. The facility opened as, and remains to this day, Mizzou Arena.
- In February 2013, Florida Atlantic University announced that it had sold the naming rights to its football venue, FAU Stadium, to GEO Group, an operator of private prisons. However, the FAU football play-by-play announcer immediately dubbed the venue "Owlcatraz" (a play on the school's nickname and the infamous Alcatraz prison), and several other protests quickly followed. Due to the pressure, the school and company agreed to rescind the naming deal before it ever took effect.
