Las Vegas-based Allegiant Airlines has landed naming rights for the new Raiders stadium in Sin City.
The announcement of Allegiant Stadium was made at a topping-out ceremony to mark placement of the final beam on the stadium. Until now, the team has been referring to the facility as Las Vegas Stadium.
Terms of the deal were not disclosed.
"We’re thrilled that our future home will be known as Allegiant Stadium," Raiders president Marc Badain told the Las Vegas Sun. "As the hometown airline, Allegiant is the perfect partner to showcase the incredible support we continue to receive from the Southern Nevada community."
The $1.88 billion stadium will host the former Las Vegas Raiders NFL team, UNLV football games, as well as other entertainment events.
"This partnership is an incredibly exciting opportunity to join Las Vegas’ hometown airline with its new hometown NFL team," said Maury Gallagher, Allegiant chairman and chief executive officer.
