Giants Stadium was constructed as part of the development of the new Sydney Showground, it was built to replace the ageing Showground at Moore Park and to provide a venue for the 2000 Summer Olympics.

A $65 million upgrade of the stadium to accommodate the GWS Giants was announced on 9 June 2010.
Jointly funded by the NSW Government, the AFL and the RAS, the upgrade included two new stands which increased seating capacity from 13,000 to 25,000 (the stadium seated 13,000 but its full pre-redevelopment capacity was listed as 21,500), upgraded hospitality facilities, improved audio and sound systems and new media facilities.
The playing surface was also reconfigured.
The upgrade was officially opened on 23 May 2012.

The RAS is seeking funding from the New South Wales Government to expand the stadium as part of a major upgrade of the Showground precinct.
It has targeted a total post-extension capacity of 30,000 seats but is considering revising the target capacity to 35,000 seats.
