Grand Rapids is about to get a major upgrade. The new Amway Stadium, located at 230 Winter Avenue NW, will soon become a key feature of downtown life. Just a short walk—less than half a mile—from popular spots like:
- David D. Hunting YMCA
- Gerald R. Ford Presidential Museum
- Ah-Nab-Awen Park
- And all the downtown attractions you already know and love!
The Vision Behind Amway Stadium
Thanks to a generous $33 million donation from Amway, this exciting project is ready to move forward. Construction will begin in Spring 2025, with the first match already scheduled for Spring 2027.
What Amway Stadium Will Offer
The stadium will feature:
- 8,500 seats, perfect for hosting sports events, concerts, and more
- An 18-story tower with:
- Restaurants for a variety of dining options
- Shops to explore before and after events
- Additional spaces to enhance downtown life
This new addition will provide both locals and visitors with more reasons to explore and enjoy Grand Rapids.
What It Means for Grand Rapids
Amway Stadium isn’t just a venue; it’s an investment in the community. It’s expected to attract 160,000 visitors annually and contribute an estimated $408 million to the local economy over the next 30 years. Beyond numbers, it will create jobs, bring more events to the area, and serve as a place where the community can gather and celebrate.
Looking Ahead
The groundbreaking is set for 2025, and there’s much more to come. Amway Stadium is designed to bring fresh opportunities, new energy, and plenty of memorable experiences to Grand Rapids.
