On Monday afternoon, Tepper Sports & Entertainment and the City of Charlotte announced a massive proposal for the renovation of Bank of America Stadium—the home of the Carolina Panthers.
Included in the release of the long-term plan were details about the potential upgrades to the venue.
Those are as follows:
Imagine entering the stadium through an inviting perimeter with a park-like setting and exterior video boards for watch parties and other viewing opportunities. Once inside, fans will experience the best in technology with a new state-of-the-art sound system, scoreboard, and video boards. They can enjoy exciting, unique social areas with skyline views, improved concessions with regional offerings, and an expanded Team Store to better accommodate Panthers and Charlotte FC fans. Arts and culture elements will be infused throughout the design to reflect the vibrant culture across the Carolinas.
Other important elements include:
-
Brand-new seats installed throughout the bowl.
-
Improved accessibility throughout the facility, designed and constructed in a way that allows individuals with a range of disabilities to have access without barriers.
-
Stadium safety and security enhancements, including illuminated wayfinding and improved lighting.
-
A reimagined South Lawn Pavilion area that can be used as a community gathering spot and outdoor classroom on game days and non-event days.
-
Upgraded restrooms throughout the stadium for better sustainability, accessibility and speed of service.
-
Enhancements to the stadium exterior to reaffirm its place as an iconic, beloved fixture of the Charlotte skyline.
-
A reduction of our impact on the environment and demand on city infrastructure through the modernization of the building systems, including mechanical, plumbing, electrical and HVAC.
Also unveiled in the official announcement were photos of how the finished product could turn out.

Per the organization, members of the Charlotte City Council will be meeting over the next several weeks to discuss the project.
