The Railyards Stadium is a planned 12,000 seat soccer-specific stadium to be built in Sacramento, California, that could be expanded to seat up to 21,000. It will serve as the home for Sacramento Republic FC, a USL Championship club, with intentions to join Major League Soccer as an expansion team. The stadium is part of the Sacramento Railyards redevelopment project and it was unanimously approved in April 2019 by the Sacramento City Council,[1][2][3] The stadium was scheduled to be completed by the start of the 2023 MLS season, before the MLS expansion was indefinitely halted in February 2021.[4] In November 2024, Sacramento Republic FC and the mayor of Sacramento Darrell Steinberg announced a restart plans for construction of a 12,000 seater stadium and entertainment district in Sacramento Railyards. The tentative opening of the new stadium is in 2027.[5]
