Episode Details

The city’s poised to rename a major downtown venue — the place where grads celebrate, concerts explode, and conferences thrive — to the Atlantic Union Bank Convention Center in a 15-year deal worth over half a million upfront, with annual fees rising 2% yearly. The naming rights package coincides with a massive expansion set to begin this year and finish by 2029, turning the landmark into a future-facing hub. But before final approval, residents can voice their opinions at a public hearing during the Raleigh City Council meeting at 1 p.m. — because this isn’t just a business move, it’s about balancing revenue, legacy, and community identity.
