Mosaic Stadium – construction description

New stadium in Regina will be built a couple hundred meters from the previous Mosaic Stadium. Initially it was also expected to retain its traditional open layout, but along the 2012’s first renderings the stadium was envisaged as enclosed, with at least partial cover.

Final design was revealed on May 22, 2014 and construction is expected to follow just a few months later. Delivery date is expected to be early 2017.

While the anchor tenant, Saskatchewan Roughriders, are expected to provide $25 million and the province grants further $80 million, it’s the city of Regina that will take up one of the largest expenses in its history. The city’s own resources are expected to be at $73 million, while a massive $100 million will come in a loan from the province. Overall the stadium is expected to cost $278 million (US$250m / €180m).
