The first phase of construction is expected to start in late 2024, with an estimated completion date of mid-2028 and a nearly $3 billion price tag.

The Dallas City Council recently granted a $71 million contract to the developer who will conduct phase one of the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center’s modernization and expansion.

Construction is expected to begin in late 2024 on new halls that are alongside the existing center, which will be demolished at some point before the expansion is completed in mid-2028. The existing center is presently booking events at least through the end of 2024; it will host the National Rifle Association’s annual meeting from May 17 to 19, 2024.
