The Bills have revealed impressive new renderings of their upcoming stadium, which is scheduled to open for the AFC powerhouse in 2026.
The team have played at Highmark Stadium – previously known as Ralph Wilson Stadium – since 1973, and work on Buffalo’s new home will begin in April according to Spectrum News 1.
The new stadium will be a stone’s throw from their current Orchard Park home, on the other side of Abbott Road, and renderings depict a state-of-the-art facility with a sleek outside design.
The pictures show how the stadium will reach a massive height, and have mechanics to prevent wind on the field.
‘The wind comes in and it’s one direction and it knows exactly what it wants to do – go into the stadium and swirl,’ Bills vice president and COO Ron Raccuia told the Buffalo News.

‘What we want to do is have it come in and go through the perforated metal pieces (lining the outside of the stadium). The wind gets confused and the perforations are random and so it starts to block the wind and cut it up and confuse it and then when the wind gets to the canopy, the canopy is pitched in such a way that it actually rides the canopy and doesn’t fall into the stadium so there is no wind swirling going into the stadium.’
The project is set to cost $1.4billion according to Front Office Sports, with New York State committing $600million to the project.
The rest of the funding will come from the team, who are providing $550million while Erie County chips in $250million.
Buffalo is one of the NFL’s best teams, and went 13-3 last season before falling in the wild card round of the playoffs.
