Rome Emperors Secure One-Year Lease Extension at AdventHealth Stadium
The Rome Emperors have finalized a one-year lease extension at AdventHealth Stadium, ensuring the team will continue playing at its Rome, Georgia venue through the upcoming season. The Floyd County Commission approved the extension at its February 12, 2026 meeting following months of negotiations with Diamond Baseball Holdings, the team's ownership group. As part of the agreement, the Emperors will assume responsibility for field maintenance and stadium security, relieving county staff of those obligations. The updated lease includes revisions to the previous contract, reflecting changes in operational responsibilities. The stadium, hosting the High‑A affiliate of the Atlanta Braves, will remain the club’s home base under the new arrangement.
