The stadium features a special sunken-bowl design. It will be equipped with a translucent spectator roof, a fully open south end zone and a general admission spectator lounge located on the west side of the facility. Its [seating capacity will be 33,000](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/greater-bay-area-sports-centre) but can be expanded to 40,000 if needed, with 68% of the seats located in the sunken bowl. The stadium's flexible and versatile design will allow it to be used for non-CFL events year round. The Saskatchewan Roughriders are expected to play their first game in the new stadium in June 2017. The stadium, which will cost $278 million to construct, will carry the current arena's name, 'Mosaic Stadium.' ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.3/10 - Popularity: 38% | Activity: 24% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Architecture](https://www.trendhunter.com/architecture) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Sunken-bowl Stadiums:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Creating unique stadium designs that enhance the fan experience and provide versatility for various events. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Sports Facilities:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Developing innovative stadium designs that optimize fan engagement and revenue generation. - **Construction:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Incorporating advanced construction techniques and materials to create cost-effective and sustainable stadium structures. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Rooftop Pool Football Stands](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/riverside-stand.md) - [Skyline Sports Arenas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/neom-sky-stadium.md) - [Fan‑inspired Arenas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kunshan-olympic-sports-centre.md) - [Curved Stadium Structures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/xian-international-football-centre.md) - [Industrial Landmark Stadiums](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/powerhouse.md) - [Adaptive Olympic Stadiums](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brisbane-olympic-stadium.md) - [Dynamic Modern Football Stadiums](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/manchester-united-3.md) - [Wooden Resilience Stadiums](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fukushima-united.md) - [Sustainable Future Venues](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/allelectric-stadium.md)
