The Tennessee Titans announced on Friday that when they pick up and move to their new stadium, they will be taking the name of their current venue with them.
The Titans revealed a new 20-year agreement with Nissan, and that deal will mean Tennessee’s new venue will be also called Nissan Stadium.
“This partnership is a natural extension of our already longstanding friendship with Nissan,” Titans President and CEO, Burke Nihill, said, per Jim Wyatt. “Our mission at the Titans is to Win, Serve, and Entertain. We pride ourselves on collaborating with organizations who love this city and state as much as we do, and for the past 40 years, Nissan has invested more than $10.5 billion statewide, serving as a great example of an outstanding corporate steward and community advocate. We look forward to the continued positive impact of this relationship for the Titans organization and the City of Nashville.”
“It is important for Nissan to keep our name on the new stadium,” chairperson of Nissan Americas, Jérémie Papin, said. “As more people come to Nashville both to visit and to live in this wonderful city, Nissan Stadium is a true showcase for our brand and for the career opportunities we’ve offered here for more than four decades.”
