The Economics of Owning a Football Stadium

What does it actually cost to own and operate a billion-dollar football stadium — and where does the money really come from? In this video, we break down the economics behind football stadium ownership: construction costs, debt, maintenance, utilities, luxury suites, sponsorships, naming rights, parking, concessions, concerts, non-game events, team leases, and the surrounding real estate. A packed stadium may look like an incredible business, but football games fill only a small part of the yearly calendar. The real challenge is turning a massive fixed-cost asset into a venue that can generate revenue throughout the entire year. We also look at real examples including Allegiant Stadium, Levi’s Stadium, and the development surrounding SoFi Stadium to understand why the smartest stadium owners think far beyond ticket sales.
