Construction firm hired for MAPS 4 Multipurpose Stadium

Published on January 13, 2026

The Oklahoma City Council voted today to approve a construction management services contract with Lingo Construction for the new MAPS 4 Multipurpose Stadium, set to anchor a future sports and entertainment district just south of Bricktown.

“Selecting a construction management firm is a significant step forward for the multipurpose stadium project,” said MAPS Program Manager David Todd. “The Lingo team brings valuable local expertise and a strong track record delivering complex venues and community spaces.”

Construction is expected to begin this spring, with the stadium scheduled to open in early 2028.

“Lingo is excited to be part of this significant project that will serve the community in many ways,” said Stan Lingo, President. “The stadium is designed to be more than a sports venue—it will serve as a gathering place that welcomes visitors from across the nation, supports local teams and events, and creates lasting memories for generations to come. We’re honored to work alongside the City and our project partners to help bring this vision to life.”

The multipurpose stadium was designed by Populous and will be operated by Echo Investment Capital. A first look at the stadium design was announced in December.

The project is funded by MAPS 4, the 2025 OKC Bond, Tax Increment Financing (TIF), private contributions and other economic development sources.

Multipurpose stadium features

The site is located east of the Oklahoma City Convention Center and south of Bricktown near I-40. The stadium will feature a United States Soccer Federation (USSF)-approved field and serve as the future home to both women's and men's teams. The venue will also feature a club section, supporters’ section, locker rooms and suites.

While soccer will be its primary function, the stadium is poised to host football, youth sports, concerts and community events.
