Are The Chiefs Relocating What Fans Need To Know
The Kansas City Chiefs are one of the NFL’s most iconic franchises. With Super Bowl wins and a massive fan base it’s no surprise that even a whisper of relocation makes headlines. So are the Chiefs relocating?
Let’s dive into the facts and the real possibilities behind the current rumors.
No the Chiefs Are Not Relocating Out of the Kansas City Metro
Let’s get this part straight — the Chiefs are not relocating out of the Kansas City area. There are no plans to move the team to another city like St Louis San Antonio or anywhere outside the region.
However the franchise is evaluating whether to:
- Stay at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium (Missouri)
- Build a new stadium across the state line in Kansas
So while Kansas City will still be home, the big question is Missouri or Kansas?

Why This Is Happening Now
In April 2024, Jackson County voters rejected a sales tax initiative that would have helped fund a renovation to Arrowhead Stadium. This was a major setback for keeping the team in Missouri.
Following that vote, the Chiefs began having serious conversations with Kansas legislators about building a new stadium complex, possibly including:
- A domed stadium
- Team headquarters
- An entertainment district
The Kansas government has already approved a STAR bond proposal that could cover up to 70 percent of the costs—a very appealing deal.

What Missouri Is Doing To Keep the Chiefs
Not to be outdone, Missouri lawmakers approved their own incentive package, offering:
- Bonds covering up to 50 percent of a stadium project
- Up to 50 million dollars in tax credits
- Requirements for repayment if the team relocates later

The goal? Keep the Chiefs on the Missouri side of the state line.
Will The Chiefs Leave Arrowhead Stadium
That’s very possible.
The team has said that Arrowhead is iconic but aging. Renovations are expensive and without public support the Chiefs may choose a fresh start in Kansas—especially if the stadium is domed and opens up more year-round events.

What This Means For Fans relocating
The team is staying in the Kansas City metro area. So don’t worry about the Chiefs becoming the “Austin Chiefs” or the “San Antonio Mahomes.”
But depending on how these stadium talks play out here’s what fans might expect:
- A brand new stadium in Kansas with better amenities
- Easier parking and traffic access with a new location
- Higher ticket prices to cover new costs
- A few years of temporary disruptions during construction
Timeline to Watch relocating
As of now:
- Kansas has extended their STAR bond offer deadline to June 30 2026
- The Chiefs have said they will make a final decision before then
- No construction has started yet on either side
