Athletics fans get up-close look at $2.1 billion investment
Things are starting to take shape for the Athletics’ future ballpark in Las Vegas.
Mick Akers of the Las Vegas Review-Journal posted a video of the new stadium appearing to be right on schedule, as it is halfway to being complete.
The new A’s stadium is estimated to cost $2.1 billion and is expected to be finished by the end of February 2028.
In Akers’ video, viewers can see the early stages of the stadium’s dome starting to connect, as well as a view of the new seating areas, which feature the 81 suites that are included.
Akers also showed an outside view of the stadium, where early construction has started on building the stadium’s parking garages, which face Mandalay Bay.
The stadium has come a long way. Last May, another video surfaced showing that the dream of baseball being played in Las Vegas was starting to become a reality. The second deck was in the early stages of being built, while the main concourse was being finished.
The new stadium is at the south end of the Las Vegas Strip, near Las Vegas Boulevard and Tropicana Avenue.
The A’s future home is expected to hold 33,000 and will be the newest state-of-the-art stadium.
The stadium was designed by the Bjarke Ingels Group and will feature a right-field scoreboard that is designed into the dome. A view of the MGM hotel and New York, New York, will overshadow the park from left field.
Las Vegas held a special groundbreaking ceremony for the stadium on June 23, 2025.
