Fan comfort and experience drove the design of Q2 Stadium, a 410,000-sq-ft, 20,000-seat multipurpose entertainment and sports venue located on 24 acres in Austin. But meeting a rapid schedule while finding ways to keep both the structure and budget efficient propelled the project team to innovate.
When it opens this spring, the $260-million Q2 Stadium will be the home of Austin FC, a new Major League Soccer team—and Austin’s first professional sports team. Developer Two Oak Ventures is working with Austin FC’s ownership group on the construction manager at-risk project, with program manager CAA ICON and architect Gensler. Austin Commercial was selected as construction manager in spring 2019.
