Mauldin, South Carolina – Construction has officially begun on a new multi-use stadium that will serve as a permanent home for the Greenville Triumph SC and Greenville Liberty SC soccer teams. The stadium is being built at BridgeWay Station and is expected to host its first matches in 2026.
The funding for the stadium project includes $4 million from the City of Mauldin, $10 million from the State of South Carolina, and over $13.5 million from Greenville Pro Soccer (GPS). Additionally, there are contributions in donated land and in-kind planning from Hughes Investments, the developer of BridgeWay Station.
Designed to accommodate up to 6,300 spectators, the new stadium aims to provide a more intimate fan experience compared to earlier proposals for a 10,000-seat facility. It will host not only professional soccer matches but also various community events, including youth and college sports, concerts, festivals, and marching band competitions.
The architectural design of the stadium will feature European-inspired elements, such as grand columns, ornamental cornices, Italian-inspired towers, and expansive archways. This aesthetic is intended to enhance the matchday experience and create a vibrant destination complete with surrounding restaurants, shops, and gathering spaces for fans.
Edifice Construction has been selected as the general contractor for the project, while the architectural design is led by Johnston Design Group. Engineering support is provided by Site Design Inc., grading by Strange Bros. Grading Co., Inc., and structural engineering by Britt Peters & Associates, Inc.
GPS is actively collaborating with the City of Mauldin, along with local schools and businesses, to develop an operations plan addressing key issues such as parking, traffic flow, pedestrian safety, rideshare operations, and shuttling services. Details regarding these plans will be shared with the public once they are finalized.
The construction of the stadium is viewed as a substantial investment for the City of Mauldin, aimed at fueling economic growth and community involvement. This project is expected to act as a cultural and economic driver for the Upstate region, helping to attract visitors and stimulate further development.
Mauldin Mayor Terry Merritt has expressed pride in the partnership that aims to position Mauldin as a premier destination in South Carolina. The new stadium is projected to energize the local economy and foster new business opportunities for the area.
