The New Columbus Crew stadium is a soccer-specific stadium under construction in Columbus, Ohio, United States. It will primarily serve as the new home stadium of the Columbus Crew SC of Major League Soccer, replacing the club's current home, Mapfre Stadium. The new stadium will cost $300 million and be located at the center of the Confluence Village neighborhood, a mixed-use development with residential and commercial buildings. It will seat 20,000 spectators and include 30 suites and 1,900 club seats.
Construction on the new stadium was originally scheduled to begin in the summer of 2019;[4] groundbreaking was later rescheduled to October 10, 2019.[2] Once the new stadium is complete, Mapfre Stadium will be redeveloped into the Crew's training center, as well as a community sports park.[5] It's expected the stadium will be ready in summer 2021.[6]
