Chiefs’ Kansas Stadium Plan Targets 2031 Move, With Major Details Still Unresolved

Local officials say no local deal is finalized, with key approvals still pending.

Overview

  • The team and Kansas outlined a domed stadium in Wyandotte County with an estimated $3 billion base cost, using roughly $1.8 billion in STAR bonds for about a 60–40 public‑private split.
  • Pro Football Talk reports the agreement includes conditions such as NFL approval by October 31, 2026, leaving space for Missouri to publicize a competing Arrowhead renovation offer before any league vote.
  • Chiefs executives say the exact site has not been selected, multiple Kansas parcels are under control, and an architect and contractor will be hired in the months ahead.
  • Planned seating is described at 65,000-plus, smaller than Arrowhead’s more than 73,000 capacity, and the team has not decided whether to use personal seat licenses.
  • The organization plans to shift its headquarters and practice facility to Olathe, with a complex that could host training camp.
