Bengals' Paycor Stadium getting a dome has entered the discussion
The Cincinnati Bengals' lease at Paycor Stadium expires June 30, 2026, and ahead of negotiations between the team and Hamilton County actually starting, a new idea has entered the conversation.
What if all involved added a dome to Paycor Stadium?
The home of the Bengals, owned by Hamilton County, becoming a multiplex arena would likely increase revenue year-round without worry of weather.
According to Scott Wartman of the Cincinnati Enquirer, the idea of Paycor Stadium adding a dome would be separate from the proposed $1 billion renovation plan revealed in September. That plan could eventually get approved in full, or have parts of it approved.
The Bengals have been dramatically modernizing the 24-year-old stadium over the last few years as it is. And while negotiations have yet to start on the upcoming lease expiration, as Wartman points out, the team can exercise five lease extensions of two years each.
In other words, this is all very much in the discussion phase and that 2026 deadline might be fluid.
