From a press release:
“The Washington Commanders and global design firm HKS are releasing the first renderings of the new stadium’s seating bowl. Inspired by the iconic RFK Stadium, these renderings bridge past and present by showcasing the team’s focus on recreating the loud, intense, and intimate atmosphere that defined the franchise’s championship era through a continuous, unified bowl. The new stadium will pay tribute to the history of the team while leveraging the latest technology and innovation to deliver unmatched live event experiences across all levels.”
“Unified bowl: The seating bowl rises in one continuous sweep from field level to the upper deck, ensuring clean sightlines and a shared viewing experience that amplifies the intensity of our fans. There are no stacked premium levels and minimal overhangs blocking sightlines or absorbing crowd noise.”
“Bring fans closer to the action: The design team increased lower bowl capacity and improved seating angles throughout the stadium, bringing fans closer to the action at every level. The first row is elevated above the playing surface for unobstructed sightlines over the sideline.
Let’s get loud: The seating angles, unbroken bowl, and roof design work together to capture crowd noise inside the stadium and push it back down toward the field. The result: one of the loudest stadiums in the NFL.”
Wall of Fans: A dedicated section for the franchise’s most passionate supporters, designed as a continuous, imposing mass of fans. The “wall” will include affordable, fan-friendly seating to ensure loyal Commanders fans can help create the most imposing home-field advantage in the NFL.
Videoboards: Innovative digital boards will deliver a dynamic, immersive game experience. From the large sideline boards to the paired endzone boards and the halo seamlessly connecting them, every element works together to amplify the energy of the game. This unique videoboard system wraps the bowl with continuous, engaging content that elevates the atmosphere for fans.”
