LaGrange Crews Begin Construction on Largest Cricket Stadium in Southeast

Construction crews recently broke ground on the LaGrange Cricket Stadium, a 10,500-seat world-class venue — the largest in the Southeast.

The stadium is designed by TVS, an Atlanta-based firm specializing in architecture, interior design, and planning.

Under Construction: LaGrange Cricket Stadium

The venue is aiming to become a sports destination and landmark for the Southeast and beyond, hosting major events alongside its core function as a cricket hub.

The design pays tribute to cricket’s rich heritage while capturing the vibrancy of its expanding global fanbase, blending innovative architecture with deep ties to Georgia’s landscape and culture

Upon completion, the stadium will comply with International Cricket Council (ICC) standards, enabling it to stage international tournaments, including future Cricket World Cup fixtures.

Fan experience drives every aspect of the concept, fostering connection and comfort through optimized seating, sightlines, and extensive amenities.

An intimate bowl layout brings spectators near the natural turf pitch for an enveloping atmosphere. A cantilevered roof offers shade and protection, while modular east and west stands ensure adaptability for concerts, festivals, community events, and more.

Accessibility, openness, and local integration define the project: open-air concourses, versatile club lounges, and street-level facilities welcome everyday community use, positioning the stadium as a vital civic resource.

“The groundbreaking of LaGrange Cricket Stadium represents a landmark moment for cricket enthusiasts throughout the Southeast and the U.S.,” stated Robert Svedberg, Principal at TVS. “Working closely with the stadium’s leadership, we’ve created a premier venue where the architecture elevates the athlete and spectator experience alike.

Flexibility, comfort, and community connection lie at the heart of our design, building a space that amplifies the sport’s growing momentum and evolves with diverse events and local needs.”
