After decades of decay and maintenance problems, Hawaii’s Aloha Stadium will be replaced after Hawaii Gov. David Ige officially approved $400 million for an entertainment district that features a new multi-purpose stadium as its centerpiece.
The New Aloha Stadium Entertainment District (NASED) will be located on the 98-acre site of the current stadium on the island of O‘ahu on the existing site in the western part of Honolulu. The $420 million project includes the demolition of the existing stadium which has not hosted any events since 2020 when it was closed due to financial issues caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.
