The Carolina Panthers and Bank of America extended their naming rights for Bank of America Stadium in a long-term deal, as renovations continue to transform the venue. Owner David Tepper is adding $500 million to the project, bringing total renovation costs to about $1.3 billion, with the city previously funding $650 million and Tepper Sports and Entertainment agreeing to cover overages. The upgrades include a 4,400-seat indoor music venue next to the stadium and extensive interior and exterior enhancements aimed at creating a year-round “Charlotte corridor” to attract major events such as the Super Bowl, NFL Draft, and a 2031 Women’s World Cup. Work is planned to roll out in phases, with interior renovations starting this year, front-facing improvements beginning in 2027, and the overall project expected to wrap around 2030, while renderings emphasize renewed gathering spaces and upgraded sightlines. The stadium will continue to host both the Panthers and Charlotte FC, with new social spaces, larger scoreboards, and a broader event slate estimated at 80 to 100 events annually. Tepper’s vision underscores a broader plan to turn the arena and surrounding area into a premier regional destination for sports, entertainment, and community events.
