Earthquakes Adding First Enclosed Lounge At Avaya Stadium For '18 MLS Season

The Earthquakes "will add their first enclosed lounge at Avaya Stadium" for the '18 MLS season, according to Jody Meacham of the SILICON VALLEY BUSINESS JOURNAL. The Sky Lounge "will be available to 300 fans" and will also be the stadium's "first premium seating option above field level." It will be "at the top of section 122 in the stadium’s southwest corner." Earthquakes COO Jared Shawlee said that "gives an excellent field view because of the steep angle of stadium seating." The lounge will "offer food and beverages from a miniature version of the huge outdoor bar that stretches across the open end of the horseshoe-shaped stadium and be enclosed by glass and redwood." The Earthquakes are also "converting space adjacent to the home and visiting team benches into two Bench Suites with outdoor seats next to the benches, similar to courtside seats at an NBA game, and an enclosed space with a patio" (BIZJOURNALS.com, 11/16).
