- The stadium design, led by Kansas City-based MANICA and architect HNTB, aims to enhance fan experience, maximize crowd noise, and preserve traditions like military flyovers under the 400,000-square-foot roof.

- The Chiefs recently partnered with Burns & McDonnell for the Olathe facility, continuing their investment in infrastructure tied to the move across the state line finalized last December.
