Pittsburgh Steelers Travel Information
The Pittsburgh Steelers play in the AFC North Division of the National Football League. The storied franchise has played in five Superbowls, winning the first four of them. Pittsburgh plays twice a season versus their division opponents Cincinnati Bengals, Cleveland Browns, and Baltimore Ravens. The rivalries versus Cleveland and Cincinnati feature the battle of Ohio and Pennsylvania and it is not uncommon to find visiting fans from the opposing team at Heinz Field. Heinz Field rises high above the north banks of the river near downtown Pittsburgh.

Built between 1999 and 2001, Heinz Field saw its first Steelers home game on October 7, 2001 vs. the Cincinnati Bengals.

The Pirates home of PNC Park is situated just east of the baseball facility. A riverwalk links the two facilities.
