A renovated Cotton Bowl is on track to be ready for the crowds of the 2025 State Fair of Texas as well as the football fans excited for the next Red River Rivalry game.
The $140 million in upgrades to the Cotton Bowl are slated to wrap up Sept. 12, Stefan Kesler, program manager for the Dallas Park and Recreation Department, said via email. Work began in March 2024 on the project that included 14 new escalators, renovations of levels five and six in the west tower, more concession stands and restrooms and an expansion of the main concourse on the west side of the complex.
JE Dunn-Russell, a joint venture of JE Dunn Construction and H.J. Russell & Co., has been overseeing construction. Overland Partners is leading the design team that also includes McAfee3 Architects, Modus and Norman Alston Architects. AECOM is program manager for overall Fair Park capital projects.
An additional phase focused on the east side of the facility has been pitched, but Ryan O’Connor, deputy director of Dallas Parks and Recreation, said via email that the project scope, schedule and budget haven’t been established yet. It’s been previously reported that the next phase of the project would likely not be done until late 2034.
