Beaver Stadium Renovation

The current proposed Beaver Stadium renovation will extend the life of the existing facility, generate new revenue, and greatly improve the quality of fan experience. As envisioned, the Beaver Stadium renovation will align Penn State Football facilities and operations with the highest competitive level within the Power 5 and Big 10.

The plan is to focus on the west side of the stadium to provide improved access for broadcasting, greatly improved circulation, new restrooms, upgraded concession offerings and much-needed premium seating. Improvements to the rest of the stadium are also planned, such as improved vertical circulation, upgraded concourses, circulation renovations to enhance accessibility, restroom additions, and upgraded concession quality and capacity. Field lighting improvements to meet NCAA standards are also planned. The capacity of Beaver Stadium will be maintained at greater than 100,000 spectators.

Another goal of the project is to address as much of the current facility maintenance needs as possible. Mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and telecom work to optimize integration with campus systems will be included in the project scope. The bulk of Beaver Stadium infrastructure and utilities are located on or have their primary entry points on the West Side of the stadium.
