Description
Available in:
Highmark Stadium is an American football stadium under construction in Orchard Park, New York. It will replace Ralph Wilson Stadium as the home field of the Buffalo Bills of the National Football League (NFL) starting in the 2026 NFL season.
The 60,108-seat stadium is being built adjacent to Erie Community College's south campus across the street from the existing Highmark Stadium, which will be demolished following the completion of the new stadium. The stadium is being designed by Populous, who previously designed Sahlen Field in downtown Buffalo and twelve other active NFL stadiums, with which the new Orchard Park stadium will share numerous design elements and features. The stadium’s 60,108 seating capacity makes it the smallest Venue seating capacity wise in the NFL.
The stadium is estimated to cost $1.7 billion. Under an agreement with the state of New York, taxpayers will pay $850 million of the construction cost (with $600 million coming from New York State and $250 million coming from Erie County). With the State of New York also paying for all maintenance and repair costs once the stadium opens, it is the largest taxpayer contribution ever for an NFL facility.
Groundbreaking for the stadium occurred in June 2023, with major construction starting that same month along with a groundbreaking ceremony on June 5, 2023. The same day the Bills announced an extension to its existing stadium naming rights deal with Highmark Blue Cross Blue Shield, with the Highmark Stadium name to be used for the new venue; it has been referred to as "New Highmark Stadium" during construction to distinguish it from the Bills' previous home, which was also called Highmark Stadium since 2021.
