On June 28, 2014, the Dolphins began their $400 million modernization of Sun Life Stadium, a renovation that includes all new seats, a shade canopy, enhanced video boards and concession improvements. The facelift should be completed for the start of the 2016 season, when the stadium will undergo yet another name change.
