The Athletics unveiled new, updated renderings with more specific details about their new ballpark project on the Las Vegas strip, located on the former site of the Tropicana.
The new images, which were presented during a Las Vegas Stadium Authority meeting at the Las Vegas Convention Center, include features that were unaddressed in previous renderings, such as home and visitor bullpens stacked together just beyond the left-field wall, as well as shortened foul territory that would allow for the closest seats to the field of any Major League stadium.
After reaching agreements with the Las Vegas Stadium Authority on lease, non-relocation, development and community benefits in December, the A’s expect to break ground on their $1.75 billion, 33,000-seat stadium – which is designed by Bjarke Ingels Group (BIG) and HNTB – at some point during the second quarter of 2025, likely June. That would put the project on track to be completed in time for the A’s to move in by 2028 Opening Day following their temporary relocation to Sutter Health Park in West Sacramento for the next three seasons.
