A new videoboard proposed back in February for Auburn's Jordan-Hare Stadium will reportedly cost $25.7 million and be two-thirds the size of the stadium's current display.
The Auburn University Board of Trustees gave the first level of approval for the addition of a new state-of-the-art videoboard in the north end zone of Jordan-Hare Stadium in February. The new board will replace the current north end zone scoreboard, which was originally installed in 1987.

The Auburn University Board of Trustees gave the first level of approval for the addition of a new state-of-the-art videoboard in the north end zone of Jordan-Hare Stadium in February. The new board will replace the current north end zone scoreboard, which was originally installed in 1987.
The north end zone videoboard project is expected to break ground in the summer of 2024 to be completed in time for the 2025 Auburn football season.
This project marks the first step toward modernizing the north end zone of Jordan-Hare Stadium. The videoboard and supporting structure have been intentionally designed to stand alone behind the current seating bowl, enabling future north end zone improvement opportunities to utilize the concrete frame as part of any future projects.
Documents state the funding will come from gifts to the athletic department, but do not provide further information on the donors.
Construction on the new videoboard can't begin until trustees grant final approval, but the vote is expected to pass.
