Renderings for the Athletics’ potential new stadium in Las Vegas were revealed on Tuesday and it was breathtaking.
The A’s on Tuesday released new renderings for their proposed Las Vegas ballpark that would be replacing the Tropicana Hotel.
While significant hurdles remain, the club still announced Tuesday it was partnering with a Danish design firm to build its proposed 33,000-seat ballpark on the Strip.
The 33,000-fan capacity ballpark design features an 18,000-square-foot video board, which would be the largest in Major League Baseball.
The team will play the 2024 season at Oakland’s Coliseum, after which its lease will expire.
The Tropicana resort that currently sits at that location will be demolished to make room for the stadium and a hotel. The Tropicana sat for decades, on the south end near resorts like MGM Grand, New York New York, Excalibur, Luxor, and Mandalay Bay.

Major League Baseball owners authorized the A’s transfer from Oakland to Las Vegas in November. The team has also obtained $380 million in funding from the state and Clark County for the construction of its proposed ballpark, which will be built on the Tropicana Las Vegas Casino Resort’s present location.
