Green Bay, WI – June 21, 2025 – The Green Bay Packers have unveiled an ambitious $1.9 billion renovation plan for Lambeau Field, the iconic home of the NFL franchise. This transformative project aims to elevate the stadium to new heights, blending its storied history with state-of-the-art technology, luxurious amenities, and expanded seating to create an unparalleled experience for fans.
A Bold Vision for the Future
The renovation, set to begin in 2026 and complete by the 2030 NFL season, will modernize Lambeau Field while preserving its legacy as one of football’s most hallowed grounds. “Lambeau Field is more than a stadium—it’s a cornerstone of our community and a symbol of Packers pride,” said Packers President and CEO Mark Murphy. “This investment ensures that our fans, players, and partners enjoy a world-class experience for generations to come.”
Key features of the renovation include:
-
Cutting-Edge Technology: The stadium will feature immersive digital displays, enhanced Wi-Fi connectivity, and advanced audio-visual systems to keep fans engaged. A new high-definition video board, three times larger than the current one, will offer crystal-clear replays and interactive content.
Luxury Suites and Premium Seating: The addition of 50 new luxury suites and premium club seating will cater to high-end clientele, offering exclusive dining options, private lounges, and personalized services. These upgrades aim to attract corporate sponsors and elevate the game-day experience.
Expanded Seating Capacity: Lambeau Field will increase its capacity by 10,000 seats, bringing the total to over 90,000. The new seating areas will include modern concourses, improved accessibility, and enhanced sightlines for an optimal viewing experience.
Sustainability Initiatives: The project incorporates eco-friendly designs, including solar panels, energy-efficient lighting, and water conservation systems, aligning with the NFL’s commitment to sustainability.
Year-Round Entertainment Hub: A reimagined Titletown District adjacent to the stadium will feature a concert venue, retail spaces, and interactive fan zones, making Lambeau Field a destination beyond game days.
Redefining the Fan Experience
The renovation is designed with fans at its core. Upgraded concourses will offer diverse food and beverage options, showcasing Wisconsin’s culinary heritage with local craft beers and artisanal dishes. Enhanced mobile ticketing and cashless payment systems will streamline entry and concessions, reducing wait times.
For the ultimate fan engagement, the Packers are introducing augmented reality (AR) experiences, allowing fans to access real-time stats, player profiles, and interactive games through their smartphones. “We want every visit to Lambeau to feel like a celebration of football,” said Murphy. “From the moment fans arrive, they’ll be immersed in the Packers experience.”
Economic Impact and Community Commitment
The $1.9 billion project, funded through a combination of team resources, NFL loans, and public-private partnerships, is expected to generate significant economic benefits for Green Bay. Local officials estimate the renovation will create 5,000 jobs during construction and boost tourism, with an projected annual economic impact of $200 million.
The Packers have also pledged to involve local businesses and minority-owned contractors in the project, reinforcing their commitment to the community. “This is about more than a stadium—it’s about investing in Green Bay and Wisconsin,” said Murphy.
Preserving Tradition, Embracing Innovation
While the renovation introduces modern amenities, the Packers are dedicated to preserving Lambeau Field’s historic charm. The iconic brick facade, the “Lambeau Leap” end zone, and the team’s Hall of Fame will remain central to the stadium’s identity. “We’re building on our legacy, not replacing it,” said Murphy. “Fans will still feel the magic of Lambeau, but with the comforts of a 21st-century venue.”
A New Era for Packers Football
As the NFL evolves, the Packers’ bold investment positions Lambeau Field as a leader in the league’s future. The renovation is expected to attract major events, including Super Bowls and international soccer matches, further cementing Green Bay’s place on the global stage.
“This is a game-changer for our fans, our team, and our city,” said Murphy. “We’re redefining what a football stadium can be while staying true to the heart and soul of the Green Bay Packers.”
