Yes — the JMA Wireless Dome has been going through a major transformation project in recent years to update seating, comfort and fan experience around the venue. One of the big changes is swapping out the old bench seating for new chairback seats, which brings more comfort but also slightly changes overall capacity and seating maps. Renovations have also included a new scoreboard, improved lighting and expanded amenities throughout the concourses. The Dome now has modern climate control and upgraded accessibility features that feel more comfortable for large crowds. Part of the ongoing work also adds premium areas and lounges to elevate how fans experience events. These updates reflect Syracuse University’s ongoing investment in keeping the Dome not just historic but also competitive with modern arenas. Fans often talk about the difference in comfort and atmosphere already noticeable after the first phases of upgrades.
