In 2023, Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment (MLSE) revealed this $350 million multi-phased project, aiming to enhance every corner of the arena, including concourses, premium clubs, suites, technology, and retail & food spaces.

The second phase of construction started in May 2024, focusing on significant upgrades to the 100 Level concourse and the introduction of a new luxury club space.

From May 2024 to October 2024, the following key enhancements are scheduled to be completed:

  • A complete renovation of the first section of the 100 Level concourse with transformative design and functional elements.
  • The addition of a second Real Sports Apparel retail store on the 100 Level concourse for a 2,600 sq. ft. fan shopping experience.
  • Conversion of apparel kiosks on the 100 Level into mini walk-in shops equipped with rotating walls and digital signage, alongside two new autograph memorabilia glass showcases.
  • Additions to the museum-like art collection curated in collaboration with Sports & The Arts (SATA), featuring new, innovative pieces throughout the 100 Level.
  • The remodeling and addition of more inclusive and accessible spaces onto the 100 Level concourse, including an infant feeding room, prayer room, all-gender bathrooms, etc.

  • The reinvigoration of the famed Hot Stove restaurant on the 200 Level.
  • The implementation of secure, frictionless security screening at entry.

  • Design makeover of the Molson Brewhouse on the 100 Level concourse.
  • Upgrades to the open-concept broadcast studio at Gate 6 on the 100 Level concourse.

The third phase of construction focuses on the 300, 400, and 500 Levels, continuing through the 2025-26 NHL and NBA seasons, and includes:

  • Redesign of the 300 Level concourse with modern finishes, inclusive spaces, new art, and LED displays.
  • Creation of the Loge Club — converting eight 500 Level suites into a 100-person club featuring premium amenities and elevator access.
  • Retail upgrades with rotating walls, a fan customization zone, and expanded areas for game-worn and autographed memorabilia.
  • Food and beverage enhancements for faster service, supported by new self-checkout technology.
