The 76ers and Flyers have released renderings of their planned new arena in South Philadelphia, offering the first detailed look at a project designed to mark a new chapter for both franchises.

The arena is described as fully privately funded and is targeted to open before the WNBA season in 2030. The design includes elements with a feel reminiscent of the Spectrum, the former Philadelphia venue long associated with the city’s basketball and hockey history.

A New Venue With Familiar Philadelphia Roots

For the 76ers, the project represents a significant update to the franchise’s long-term arena plans. For the Flyers, it would also provide a new home in the same South Philadelphia sports district that has been central to the city’s professional sports identity.

The renderings highlight an effort to connect a modern arena concept with Philadelphia’s past, particularly through references to the Spectrum’s atmosphere and legacy. The venue is expected to serve as the future home for both teams once completed.
