New stadium to be built in Adelaide?

Thursday 17th September 2020

The Australian city of Adelaide is exploring the possibility of building a new 22,000 capacity football stadium.

The new ground would be a multi-use arena, with a 15,000 capacity for sports such as basketball and netball, 22,000 for football and 30,000 for music concerts.

The proposed stadium would replace 2 ageing venues in the city - A-League side Adelaide United's Cooper Stadium and the Adelaide Entertainment Center, both of which are seen as too small and getting to the end of their useful life.

As well as the stadium, the Riverbank West project would also include commercial space, food and beverage outlets and a hotel.
