The Future of
Davis Wade Stadium
STARKVILLE, MS - To accommodate for the demand of Mississippi State Football season tickets, an expansion and renovation to Davis Wade Stadium is now underway. This project includes a North End Zone expansion which will take stadium capacity from 55,000 to over 61,000. This expansion is aimed at offering more Bulldog fans opportunity to experience game day in Starkville with various seating options.
Preliminary ground work began in August of 2012 and the project officially broke ground immediately following the 2012 regular football season. Construction is expected to be complete in time for the 2014 home opener against Southern Miss.
The expansion will include an additional 8,815 seats (net gain of 6,255), with 1,739 new premium seats, moving the capacity to
61,337. With the 22 additional suites, Davis
Wade Stadium will have 72 total suites, when expansion is completed.
Key Next Steps:
•Completion of second tier of north endzone lower bowl.
•Work will continue steadily in the north endzone as crews construct the upper sections of the stadium including the Scoreboard Club and State Level Suites, as well as the other unique features being added through this project.
•Full project completion is set for the 2014 football season!
