A public plan designed to keep Empower Field viable for decades to come is on indefinite hold.
The Stadium District Master Plan, adopted by the city of Denver in 2019 to transform the south side of the stadium grounds into a mixed-use neighborhood and entertainment district that would provide funding for Empower Field improvements, has stalled, with no plans to renew talks on the horizon.
Although the Broncos did cover a significant portion of $100 million of renovations to the stadium in 2023, the franchise has not engaged Metropolitan Football Stadium District officials about the master plan since the Walton-Penner ownership group bought the team in 2022.
