Allegiant Stadium

Las Vegas, NV
United States

Given the aggressive construction schedule and design-build approach, it was imperative that we had an expert team overseeing the project on our behalf. CAA ICON’s top priority was ensuring that we got the best value from every member of the project team. As a result, we have collectively delivered an on-budget, extraordinary stadium in the originally-planned 31 months, and CAA ICON was no doubt integral in every step of the success.

An Iconic Venue

Allegiant Stadium, home to the Las Vegas Raiders, is a global events destination located adjacent to the world-famous Las Vegas Strip. Modern features create a high-tech, iconic structure that is fully enclosed and climate-controlled with a capacity of 65,000. Designed to make game day a daylong event for fans and families, the stadium includes premium entertainment venues such as a 55,000 sf lounge and viewing area and 80 ft by 200 ft operable lanai doors that open to a classic Las Vegas view. State-of-the-art features include a retractable natural grass playing field and a translucent ETFE roof allowing illumination by natural light, while protecting fans from the desert heat.

Relocation

Prior to the development of Allegiant Stadium, the Raiders were located in Oakland, CA. In 2016, the Raiders began to contemplate a potential relocation, and CAA ICON was engaged to evaluate the feasibility of an NFL team and new stadium in Las Vegas. The Raiders have played in Las Vegas at Allegiant Stadium since the beginning of the 2020 NFL season.
