A geothermal cooling system comprises an open-air structure and a closed, geothermal loop configured to cool an environment in which the open-air structure is located. The loop comprises a below-ground tubing field comprising one or more tubing loops, at least one above-ground bank of tubing coupled to the open-air structure, at least one fluid supply line fluidically coupling the below-ground tubing field and the above-ground bank of tubing, and at least one fluid return line fluidically coupling the below-ground tubing field and the above-ground bank of tubing. The loop comprises at least one pump operably coupled to the supply line and configured to apply a pressure differential sufficient to draw fluid from the below-ground tubing field through the supply line and into the above-ground bank of tubing arranged to circulate the fluid via gravity through the above-ground bank of tubing and return the fluid to the below-ground tubing field.
