New Nissan Stadium is an indoor American football stadium under construction in Nashville, Tennessee. In 2027, it is to replace Nissan Stadium as the home venue for the Tennessee Titans of the National Football League (NFL). [2] [3]
The 60,000-seat stadium is projected to cost $2.1 billion, including $1.26 billion of public money—the largest stadium subsidy in U.S. history. [4]
It is being built next to Nissan Stadium, which will be demolished after its completion. The stadium was designed by Manica Architecture, which also designed Allegiant Stadium, NRG Stadium and Wembley Stadium. [5]
Nissan Stadium, an open-air concrete-and-steel stadium that seats 69,000, has served as the home venue for the Tennessee Titans since its opening in 1999. The city hired an independent group, Venue Solutions Group (VSG), to assess its condition and the cost of maintaining it for the remainder of the lease, which ends in 2039. VSG's preliminary report concluded that it would cost the city between $1.75 and 1.95 billion to renovate Nissan Stadium as a "first class condition" facility. [6]
The $2.1 billion cost of the new stadium will come from:
The 1.7-million-square-foot proposed stadium would be a dome, have a seating capacity of 55,000-60,000, have about 170 luxury suites and an artificial turf field. [7] The Titans would sign a 30-year lease to play in the stadium.
The financing program was confirmed by a 26-11 vote on April 25, 2023. Construction began in 2024. [8]
The route of the IndyCar Series Music City Grand Prix, which ran on city streets, was originally to be changed during the new stadium's construction. However, on February 14, 2024, it was announced that the race would be moved to nearby Nashville Superspeedway. [9] [10]
In July 2025, a noose was discovered, delaying construction of New Nissan Stadium while the Metropolitan Nashville Police Department investigated. On July 24, it was announced that no charges would be filed in the incident. [11]
Opening day is set for 2027.
