“M&T Bank continues as a valuable Bills partner, and its brand aligns perfectly with one of Western New York’s premier event and meeting venues,” said Jason Heartland, Bills SVP & Chief Commercial Officer via BuffaloBills.com. “We expect the new Highmark Stadium to become the go-to location for a variety of occasions, including private and corporate events.”

Per the team website, “On game days, M&T Bank Lounge will serve as a unique, can’t-miss gathering place for the Western New York business community. A communal space shared by all suite owners and guests to engage with others — without having to venture away from their sections of the stadium to connect with colleagues, partners and friends.”

The team’s release states that the event space will be accessible for private rental by the community.

Excitement continues to build as the days pass leading up to the opening of the Bills’ new building, which will feature a load of amenities that have previously been unheard of at the current stadium, which has been in place since it opened in 1973.
