Beaver Stadium – construction description

The $700 million modernization of the gigantic Beaver Stadium focuses mainly on the reconstruction of its west stand, but in the initial phase of the project, carried out in 2024, refurbishments were also made to the rest of the facility.

The most important phase kicked off in early 2025 with the spectacular blow-up of the old press box building. The entire modernization process will last until 2027 and will be carried out mainly during the off-season.

During the 2025 and 2026 seasons, the under-construction western stand will feature temporary structures to keep the stadium's capacity above 100,000 seats.

With the upgrades, the west stand will be divided into tiers and will receive a rich premium offering, while a large building with facilities, which will be connected to the stand, is to be built on the outer side.

The redevelopment will raise the standard of the stadium and increase its profitability. Although capacity may decrease slightly, Beaver Stadium will remain among the largest stadiums in the US and the world.
