Tepper Sports and Entertainment

Tepper Sports and Entertainment has unveiled renderings for significant upgrades to Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte, including a new music venue, event pavilion, and improved seating. The upgrades aim to position Charlotte as a host city for major events like the 2031 Women’s World Cup and more college football games. The MLS All-Star game is the next major event at the stadium.

A former Charlotte FC employee sued Tepper Sports and Entertainment, alleging he was fired for kindness while female employees faced fewer consequences for misconduct. The lawsuit claims Swinehart was terminated over an email offering a family a match-day suite after a youth camp incident, with allegations of gender-based unequal treatment by leadership.

New traffic patterns are being tested around Bank of America Stadium during major events like the Chris Stapleton concert to improve traffic flow. The changes focus on key areas including Morehead Street, Church and Third Streets, and Graham and Mint Streets, aiming to direct traffic to I-277 and I-77 more efficiently. Residents and workers in Uptown Charlotte express hope that these adjustments will alleviate current traffic congestion during events.
