The Tennessee Titans have revealed more details about their new stadium, that will start construction early next year. The yet-to-be-named stadium will be worth $2.1 billion, have 62,000 seats, and is expected to be opened in time for the 2027 season.
The Titans shared a video on their social media that shows how the new stadium will look while also providing examples for additional uses.
The Titans are currently playing their home games at the 69,000-seat Nissan Stadium, which was built in 1999. The Titans initially planned to renovate their existing stadium but paused the efforts in 2022 due to “rising costs” and “the antiquated structure.”
The team announced its intention to build a new stadium in late 2022 and received approval from the city of Nashville to use $1.26 billion in public funding earlier this year. It is the largest public funding expenditure for a stadium, surpassing the $850 million Buffalo recently approved for the construction of the new home stadium for the Bills.
The Titans’ new home promises to afford fans a better experience with an improved seat layout. It will feature artificial turf and a translucent dome. The plan is to use the stadium to attract high-profile events to Nashville, like Super Bowl, College Football Playoffs, and more.
