Site work and renovation of a stadium in Orlando, Florida. Conceptual plans call for the renovation of a stadium; and for site work for a stadium.

https://www.bizjournals.com/orlando/news/2024/08/05/camping-world-stadium-upgrades.html City of Orlando leaders are making progress on naming a key part of the project team for upgrades at Camping World Stadium. The city is working through the selection of a project manager for the proposed upgrades to the city-owned venue, which is being funded by $400 million in Orange County tourist development taxes. The work includes fully connecting the upper concourse of the stadium, replacing seats in the upper bowl and building a new 100,000-square-foot events center. The manager would help the city pick the design team for the project, as well as prepare the request for proposals and select a project construction manager. City of Orlando spokeswoman Ashley Papagni told Orlando Business Journal the project manager role will go before the Orlando City Council for approval in the next month or so, while the construction manager bid process will start in the near future. Florida Citrus Sports CEO Steve Hogan told OBJ the organization is working with the city, which is leading the process. The goal is to have the construction manager role bid out in the fall, start work in 2025 and be complete by August or September 2027 in time for football season. "There are so many opportunities to come after that, whether it is more kickoff games, the college football national championship, the Florida/Georgia game we're going to pitch for 2027. The Jacksonville Jaguars will make a decision [on its temporary home], and if the NFL decides to add another game in the NFL regular season, we have to be ready for those types of activities." Orange County Mayor Jerry Demings said the investment in Camping World Stadium will help the region keep its momentum when it comes to drawing events that bring sports tourism, like the NFL Pro Bowl Games and more. For example, the 2024 edition of the NFL all-star game brought 30,000 out-of-town visitors. Meanwhile, Orlando was ranked Sports Business Journal's No. 1 city among the Best Sports Business Cities for event hosting. ____________________ https://www.bizjournals.com/jacksonville/news/2024/08/01/nfl-pro-bowl-games-camping-world-stadium.html Meanwhile, Camping World Stadium is set to undergo upgrades funded by more than $400 million in Orange County Tourist Development Tax funds. That work would go into 2027 before football season, which would potentially impact the scheduling of events at the stadium. ----------------------------------------------------------- https://www.bizjournals.com/orlando/news/2024/07/08/camping-world-stadium-club-america-athletico.html Orlando will soon host a match between two of South and Central America's top soccer teams.
