The owners of the Energy FC are launching a communitywide survey Thursday to collect ideas and suggestions for food and beverage preferences, seating arrangements, amenities and programming as designs are finalized for construction of a $71 million stadium to be built south of Lower Bricktown.
When the team sold to an investment group led by Christian Kanady, the purchase came with a promised donation to the city of 7.2 acres of land south of Lower Bricktown by the owners of the Energy FC soccer team. The deed to the property was transferred to the city on Tuesday.
As part of ramp-up to construction starting next year and opening in 2027, Kanady’s group, Echo, recently launched OKC for Soccer | OKC Es Fútbol, a 33-member committee formed to expand community ties with the soccer team and a planned women’s team. The survey also coincides with a likely rebranding.
As part of planning for the stadium, Echo hired the firm CSL to gather ideas for the project through an online survey (www.okcforsoccer.com), in both English and Spanish, that will go live at 10 a.m. Thursday and will gather suggestions through midnight Dec. 31.
