Report: Bills Planning to Build New Stadium, Could Open Between 2025-2027
The Buffalo Bills are planning to build a new open-air stadium in Orchard Park, New York, per Thad Brown of News 8.
The facility may be ready as early as 2025, but Brown wrote that 2026 or 2027 are more likely start years for the Bills to begin play in the new stadium.
The Bills currently play in Orchard Park's Highmark Stadium, which opened to fans in August 1973 when it was known as Rich Stadium. The building also went by Ralph Wilson Stadium, New Era Field and Bills Stadium before its current name.
The lease for that stadium is up in 2023, per Brown, meaning the Bills could be forced to find an interim home before the new stadium is ready.
