The stadium was originally the home of Major League Baseball's San Francisco Giants, who played there from 1960 until 1999. It was also the home field of the San Francisco 49ers of the National Football League from 1971 through 2013. The last event held at Candlestick was a concert by Paul McCartney in August 2014, and the demolition of the stadium was completed in September 2015. As of 2019, the site is planned to be redeveloped into office space.
