History

Historical Context

The Cowboys’ move to Frisco began with the 2013 city-team partnership that created The Star, a 91-acre $5 billion Mile complex housing their headquarters and training center. This modern-facility model follows earlier stadium upgrades, such as the $1.3 billion AT&T Stadium opened in 2009, and now informs the Chiefs’ 2026 training-camp expansion in St. Joseph.
