Smithy’s Sports Bar & Lounge Expanding Ahead of the 2026 Season

Guests gather in Smithy's Sports Bar and Lounge

In its first year, Smithy’s Sports Bar & Lounge was a standout success. Every match day was full of energy, great food, and live football at Seymour Shaw. The only challenge was demand. We often had more people wanting to get in than we could comfortably accommodate.

For 2026, we’re fixing that. Smithy’s is growing by 50%, adding more than 50 seats and lifting total capacity to over 200 guests. The upgrade will enhance matchday experiences for fans, players, and partners, giving everyone more room to celebrate, connect, and enjoy the game-day atmosphere. It’s one of the best places to watch football in the country, and it’s only going to get better.

Settle in and enjoy the game. Place your order at the bar and we’ll deliver your food straight to your seat, so you never miss a moment. Our construction team is working hard to have the expanded venue ready for the season opener, and we can’t wait to kick off under new head coach David Perkovic.

In addition, Smithy’s Season Memberships will be launching soon, offering members exclusive early access to the best seats in the house, 30 minutes before doors open to the public. Keep an eye on our socials and web site for more details very soon.
