STADIUM INFO
Levi’s® Stadium is home to the San Francisco 49ers, and also serves as one of the world’s best outdoor sports and entertainment venues. The $1.2 billion venue has 1.85 million square feet, seats approximately 68,500 and features 165 luxury suites and 8,500 club seats.
STADIUM DESIGN
The stadium was designed by HNTB and is being built by Turner/Devcon for the Santa Clara Stadium Authority. The structure takes advantage of our Silicon Valley climate and will be predominantly open and airy, while also environmentally friendly.
The new stadium in Santa Clara is the next generation of stadium design. One of the most unique features of the facility is the green roof atop the suite tower on the west side of the stadium. The three solar bridges, connecting the main parking area to the stadium, will include hundreds of solar panels.
