USF shares new on-campus stadium renderings

The University of South Florida will hold its groundbreaking ceremony for its new on-campus stadium during the university’s annual Homecoming Week celebration, scheduled for October 14 to October 19, 2024.

USF also released two new daytime renderings of the on-campus stadium, which follow the first set of renderings published in December.

Following a competitive bid process, USF selected Manhattan Construction Company, H.J. Russell & Company and DuCon as the construction manager for the new stadium.

The selected team has worked with college and professional stadiums throughout the country, and numerous facilities in the Tampa Bay region and the state of Florida and has previously partnered on more than $1.2 billion in projects with USF’s design team, Populous.

USF’s on-campus stadium is scheduled to open in time for the fall 2027 season.
