Major League Baseball Commissioner Rob Manfred and Athletics principal owner John Fisher participated in a ceremonial groundbreaking for the team's new $1.75 billion, 33,000-seat domed stadium in Las Vegas on June 23, 2025.

The ballpark is being constructed on nine acres of the 35-acre former Tropicana Las Vegas site, which was imploded in October 2024. The Athletics expect the stadium to be ready for Opening Day in 2028.
