Description

Hawaii's Aloha Stadium, a 50,000-seater arena opened in 1975, has been abandoned due to safety concerns and is set for demolition. The stadium, known as the 'Metal Mecca', suffered from design flaws related to steel corrosion in the humid, salty climate. Demolition is planned to start in August 2025, with an expected cost of $20 million and a duration of 10 months. The rebuild project cost has escalated to $650 million, nearly double the original $350 million estimate from 2019. The new stadium is planned to be part of an entertainment district and is targeted for completion by the 2028 football season.
