This recent development will, however, not affect scheduled games which means lovers of the football league still get to enjoy the sport. Gambling sites such as Unibet provide a reliable platform for players to bet on various games available. The construction of this new American football stadium is said to cost about $ 2.1 billion, with the deal being the largest in the state's history. 

Luckily, there are no financial setbacks to this project as the National Football League (NFL) as well as other private and public institutions have indicated their plan to help finance the new stadium. In this article, we will discuss several things that surround the development of this proposed stadium project.

Stadium Funding

Financing the new Tennessee Titans Stadium has come with plenty of support from city officials and revenue to ensure this deal goes through properly. The Major has also demonstrated his willingness to see the deal move on smoothly by employing the New York-based Inner Circle Sports, to assist with the process. Thanks to financial support from city officials which includes $500 million from the state legislators and $760 million generated by various sales and tax revenue, this deal will become the largest in the state's history 

As a result, the Titans' new stadium will generate a total taxpayer funding of $ 1.26 billion surpassing any other stadium deal in NFL history. A portion of the finances will also go to the maintenance and support of the stadium and the East bank infrastructure.

As part of the negotiation, the stadium is expected to have 130 acres for parking spaces, community events and so on.

Stadium Information

After several meetings and negotiations among various parties, the stadium development project was given the go-ahead with plans already in motion.

Since the approval by the 40-member metro council, the Titans have provided a more detailed rendering of the project which contains information about the new stadium capacity, location and other designs drafted by MANICA. These concepts focused on designs that will be suitable for various events, making it a versatile and multi-functional building

Other features of the proposed stadium include:

  • 60,000 seats with better viewing angles for spectators across various sections of the stadium. 
  • Advanced infrastructure and materials across different parts of the structure.
  • An exclusive 12,000 square ft space for other events, recreational activities and non-profit programs. 
  • Separate exterior terraces provide an excellent view of the city.   
  • A circular translucent, stationary roof.

Stadium Events

With the recent approval from the Metro council, plans are now in motion to get the construction project on the way with a view to completion in 2026. Once the project is done, the city of Nashville will be able to host a lot of big events. However, there were concerns regarding the progress of the project which led to the city missing out on the chance to host the world cup. 

Nonetheless, we can expect to see various other sporting and non-sporting events take place on the new site in a few years. This may include live concerts, the Super Bowl, NCAA Final, College Football Playoffs and Wrestlemania Events. 

The new Titans stadium is getting so much backing and financial support from Nashville leaders which is quite impressive for the sports community and city at large. Although this project seems football-inclined, the city of Nashville has a lot to benefit from various standpoints, especially from a financial perspective. To put into perspective, the state will generate a lot of revenue from sales and taxes from the in-stadium and the exclusive space outside the stadium.
