<p><b>Mosaic Stadium</b> is an open-air <a href="/pages/w/112151772129899">stadium</a> under construction in <a href="/pages/w/109369119081169">Regina, Saskatchewan</a>. Announced on July 14, 2012, the stadium will replace <a href="/pages/w/110076115711127">Mosaic Stadium at Taylor Field</a> as the home field of the <a href="/pages/w/113148732032637">Canadian Football League</a>'s <a href="/pages/w/111890018822841">Saskatchewan Roughriders</a>. Designed by <a href="/pages/w/112174268800096">HKS, Inc.</a>, preliminary construction on the new stadium began in early 2014, it is expected to be completed by August 2016, and the Roughriders will move into the stadium for the 2017 CFL season.</p><h2>Design</h2><p>The stadium is intended to provide a more modern fan experience. It will be an open-air stadium like Taylor Field, consisting of a sunken bowl with a partial roof around much of its rim, designed to shield spectators; the rim's curved design will prevent <a href="/pages/w/106308449400660">snow</a> from accumulating on the roof. The stadium will be built to support the construction of a full roof in the future. The south end zone will not be covered by the roof. To protect spectators from wind, the lower bowl will be located 10 metres (33 ft) below ground level. The stadium will individually seat 33,000 spectators, and can be expanded to seat up to 40,000 with temporary seating. 38 corporate suites and two levels of luxury seating will also be provided. The stadium will also feature an open <a href="/pages/w/107273489295344">concourse</a>, circling the entire stadium.</p><h2>History</h2><p>On July 12, 2012 during a pre-game ceremony, <a href="/pages/w/137370929618150">Saskatchewan Premier</a> <a href="/pages/w/108048869223159">Brad Wall</a> and Regina mayor <a href="/pages/w/109300242430282">Pat Fiacco</a> ceremoniously announced the signing of a memorandum of understanding for the funding of a new stadium to house the <a href="/pages/w/111890018822841">Saskatchewan Roughriders</a>, to replace <a href="/pages/w/110076115711127">Mosaic Stadium at Taylor Field</a>. The new stadium will be constructed at <a href="/pages/w/126765344033567">Evraz Place</a>, Regina's exhibition grounds. Evraz Place is also the site of the <a href="/pages/w/113074948742145">Brandt Centre</a>, home arena of the <a href="/pages/w/109696315722798">Regina Pats</a> <a href="/pages/w/107504809279372">WHL</a> team. The project was officially approved by the Regina City Council in January 2013.</p>
