A new shared arena for the 76ers and Flyers is coming to the South Philadelphia Sports Complex as part of a 50/50 partnership between Comcast Spectacor and Harris Blitzer Sports & Entertainment, the Sixers' ownership group.

The team, whose ownership group is led by investor Josh Harris, said it had formed a 50-50 joint venture with Comcast to replace its arena in the South Philadelphia stadium district by 2031. Comcast will also take a minority stake in the team and work together on the WNBA bid, the parties said in a joint statement Monday.

The Philadelphia 76ers are staying in South Philadelphia in the latest -- and likely final -- twist in their quest to build a new arena. The Josh Harris-owned 76ers and the NHL's Flyers (owned by Comcast Spectacor) made an announcement Monday morning that the two teams will continue sharing a home in the South Philly Stadium Complex and will build a new arena slated to open by 2031 in a "50-50 joint venture.
