Stadium station is a temporarily closed San Diego Trolley stop on the Green Line. The elevated station has an island platform as well as side platforms. It is located in the under-construction San Diego State University Mission Valley campus. It was originally built in the parking lot of the former SDCCU Stadium. When the stadium was in operation the station was frequently used during major stadium event days. The large parking lots around the former stadium served as a massive park and ride facility. Previously known as the Qualcomm Stadium station, it was renamed after Qualcomm's naming rights to the stadium expired in June 2017. The area around the station is undergoing re-development into part of San Diego State University's campus and Snapdragon Stadium for the San Diego State Aztecs football team. Prior to July 2005, this station was served by the Blue Line until service between Old Town Transit Center and Mission San Diego was replaced by the Green Line upon its introduction in conjunction with the opening of the Mission Valley East extension. The station was closed on November 1, 2020, for 2 years until the new SDSU Snapdragon Stadium opens in 2022.

Snapdragon Stadium, known during its planning and early construction phases as Aztec Stadium, is an under-construction American football stadium in San Diego, California on the campus of San Diego State University at SDSU Mission Valley, a 166-acre (67 ha) non-contiguous expansion parcel of the university campus. The 35,000-seat stadium will serve as the home of the San Diego State Aztecs football team, which represents San Diego State University in collegiate football (NCAA). It will also be the home of the San Diego Wave FC of the National Women's Soccer League (NWSL), and the San Diego Legion of Major League Rugby (MLR). Snapdragon Stadium broke ground on August 17, 2020 and is scheduled to open on September 3, 2022 for the Aztecs' season opener versus the Arizona Wildcats. Snapdragon Stadium is being built at the site of San Diego Stadium, which had been the home of the school's football program since the stadium opened in 1967. San Diego Stadium, also known as Jack Murphy Stadium, Qualcomm Stadium and SDCCU Stadium during its existence, also served as the home of the former San Diego Chargers of the National Football League (NFL) from 1967 through 2016, the San Diego Fleet of the Alliance of American Football (AAF) for four home games during the canceled 2019 season, and the San Diego Padres of Major League Baseball (MLB) from 1969 through 2003.

Major League Soccer (MLS) is the premier professional soccer league in the United States and Canada. The league has 30 teams in 30 stadiums as of the 2025 season: 27 in the United States and 3 in Canada. At the time of the league's inauguration in 1996, MLS teams used multi-purpose stadiums, often shared with National Football League (NFL) or college football teams. Because of lower attendance, these stadiums had rows of seats covered in tarps to limit capacity. Starting in 1999 with the Columbus Crew's construction of Historic Crew Stadium, the league has constructed soccer-specific stadiums which are tailor-made for soccer and which have smaller capacity. Today, the majority of MLS stadiums are soccer-specific stadiums. While the league's early stadiums relied heavily on public financing, several modern soccer-specific stadiums have been majority-funded by clubs and their owners. The league's soccer-specific stadiums, with the exception of Providence Park in Portland, Oregon, have grass playing surfaces. The remaining stadiums with artificial turf surfaces are mostly used by teams sharing their venues with other sports, including American football. Pitch sizes range from a width of 70 yards (64 m) used by New York City FC at Yankee Stadium and the Houston Dynamo at Shell Energy Stadium, to 80 yards (73 m) used by the LA Galaxy at Dignity Health Sports Park. As with the other major North American sports leagues, the majority of MLS stadiums have sold their naming rights to corporations. BC Place, Soldier Field, and Yankee Stadium are the only current MLS stadiums without a corporate-sponsored name.

Fenton Parkway is a station on San Diego Trolley's Green Line. This street-level station has side platforms. It is located near Fenton Parkway and the San Diego River. The station is near a large apartment complex, several office parks, and Fenton Marketplace in the Mission Valley East neighborhood. This station opened on September 19, 2000, as an 'infill' station (i.e. it was not an original station when the line opened in 1997). As such, Fenton Parkway is the only infill station on the current Green Line. It was served by Blue Line trolleys until July 2005, when service between Old Town Transit Center and Mission San Diego (and points eastward) was replaced by Green Line upon its introduction in conjunction with the opening of the Mission Valley East extension.

Mission San Diego is a station on San Diego Trolley's Green Line. The street-level station has side platforms. It is located in the Grantville neighborhood near the Mission San Diego de Alcalá and National University's San Diego campus. From the station's opening in late 1997, this station was the former terminus for the Blue Line trolleys until the July 2005 introduction of the Green Line service, in conjunction with the opening of the Mission Valley East extension, pushed the Blue Line's terminus back to Old Town Transit Center.With the Blue Line's truncation, all Green Line trolleys now serve the former portion of the Blue Line from Old Town to this station and points eastward. (A system redesign on September 2, 2012, truncated the Blue Line's terminus farther to the America Plaza station and extended the Green Line's terminus from Old Town to 12th & Imperial Transit Center.)

Mission Basilica San Diego de Alcalá (Spanish: Misión San Diego de Alcalá) was the first Franciscan mission in The Californias, a province of New Spain. Located in present-day San Diego, California, it was founded on July 16, 1769, by Spanish friar Junípero Serra in an area long inhabited by the Kumeyaay people. The mission and the surrounding area were named for the Catholic saint Didacus of Alcalá, a Spaniard more commonly known as San Diego. The mission was the site of the first Christian burial in Alta California. The original mission burned in 1775 during an uprising by local natives San Diego is also generally regarded as the site of the region's first public execution, in 1778. Father Luis Jayme, California's first Christian martyr who was among those killed during the 1775 uprising against the mission, lies entombed beneath the chancel floor. The current church, built in the early 19th century, is the fifth to stand on this location. The mission site is a National Historic Landmark.
