Jersey's main outdoor stadium is Springfield, in the town of St Helier. It has played host to virtually all the important local football finals, including the annual competition against Guernsey and Alderney for the Muratti Vase - held alternately at Springfield and in Guernsey - and the opening and closing ceremonies and football matches of the Island Games in 1997. Among the leading teams to have played exhibition matched in the stadium are Manchester United, and other major events staged there include concerts by the Beatles and the Rolling Stones in the 1960s.
