Farmers Field Has Potential To Earn $122.5M Annually On Premium Seating

AEG's proposed Farmers Field in downtown L.A. would have an estimated 200 suites and 15,000 club seats, setting the venue up for annual potential premium seating revenue of $122.5M, according to data from consulting firm Conventions, Sports & Leisure Int’l. The venue's proposed number of suites would rank only behind Cowboys Stadium, MetLife Stadium and FedExField. Only FedExField would have more total club seats. Cowboys Stadium topped all NFL venues last year in terms of total potential premium seating revenue with $137.9M, while the Metrodome ranked last with only $7.8M. Gillette Stadium and EverBank Field have the fewest number of suites in the league. Listed below is an overview of NFL stadium premium seating from '10, with venues ranked by potential revenue from those seats (THE DAILY).
