The age of coronavirus has seen the sporting and entertainment industry forced to adapt in remarkable ways to health and safety regulations. With the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games postponed, along with various sporting seasons either cancelled or on standby, stadium owners and operators remain focused on what the post-covid era will look like when re-engaging fans back into the stands.
In spite of navigating the immediate impact of COVID-19, stadium project planning, digital fan experiences and security remains intact – as evident from the commencement on construction of the $1.7billion Guanzhou Evergrande 100,000 seat stadium in April 2020.
World Stadiums Congress, run by global leaders in stadium and arena development, will be a 3-part series exploring the different strategies venue owners and operators must account for moving forward.
