The stadium’s design utilized sustainable, temporary solutions while meeting the stringent cricket standards that the ICC has in place — offering a world-first for the sport. The grandstands, originally used for the Formula 1 Las Vegas Grand Prix, were repurposed for the primary general admission seats, while over 80,000 square feet of hospitality space, including a party deck, fan suites, cabanas and VIP clubs, offered an unparalleled experience. Additionally, a variety of food and beverage outlets provided a top-tier experience for all guests attending the largest ICC event ever, in addition to strategically placed media and broadcast areas.

The drop-in pitch, designed and curated in Australia, was grown in Florida and transported to New York, offering one of the finest wickets in the world. The development of the pitch was oversaw by Adelaide Oval Turf Solutions. The outfield was cultivated by LandTek Group, the sports turf experts responsible for the fields for the New York Yankees, New York Mets and Inter Miami’s stadium and training fields.
