PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla (CBS12) — Port St. Lucie Soccer Club on Friday released new renderings of its future stadium, offering the public its first detailed look at the venue that will become home to the city’s first professional soccer team.
The stadium is planned as a multi-use sports and entertainment venue that will host Port St. Lucie SC matches beginning in 2028, along with concerts, festivals and other community events throughout the year. The club will begin play in USL League One in 2027 before moving into the new stadium the following year.

Groundbreaking is expected later this year, with construction currently targeted to begin in November. The venue will initially seat 6,000 fans, with room for future expansion as the club grows.
The development will also feature restaurants, retail, hospitality and recreational spaces, creating what club officials describe as a year-round destination designed to support local businesses, generate jobs and bring new entertainment options to the Treasure Coast.
The stadium’s design draws inspiration from Florida’s Treasure Coast, with open-air gathering spaces, tropical architecture and premium hospitality areas aimed at creating an all-day experience for families, residents and visitors.
“We’re excited to share the next step in bringing Port St. Lucie SC’s vision to life,” Chief Operating Officer Diego Delledonne said in a statement. “These new renderings offer a closer look at a project designed not only as the future home of our club, but as a destination for the entire community. Every aspect of the project has been developed with the goal of creating memorable experiences for families, fans and visitors throughout the year.”
