Tennessee Titans unveil plans for new $2.1 billion stadium
After moving into Nissan Stadium in 1999, the Tennessee Titans are looking to turn their franchise around with a new stadium. The Titans have unveiled new plans for a $2.1 billion stadium.
Nashville’s Metro Council has just passed the $2.1 billion plan Wednesday morning for the Titans’ new stadium. Tennessee is looking to have its new home built in time for the 2027 season, making it a four-year project.
The $2.1 billion project will feature 60,000 seats for fans and will be built across 15 acres along the east Cumberland River. With this generous amount of seating in the stadium, the Titans home will be eligible to host Super Bowls, College Football Playoffs, NCAA Final Four events and more.
The Titans described their project to look like no other stadium ever built.
“This stadium wasn’t designed to look like all the others. We’re building it from scratch. We’re building it for you. It represents the very best of Tennessee: the willingness to work together when the odds are stacked against us and supporting each other along the way. We’ll experience our best moments here, together – strangers high-fiving amid touchdown cheers and thousands singing at the top of their lungs to the same soundtrack. Everything you love about our city you’ll find in this stadium. Because this is our town. Our time. Our team.”

Similar to the previously built U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis, Minn., Nashville residents will pay a large sum of the funding money in tax dollars to build the stadium. But, the Titans organization will be paying $840 million to build their new home.
Is this a new start for the Titans organization? How will the stadium turn out? Let us know in the comments down below.
