Parramatta Stadium Rebuild and other stuff

[Suitman]

Sure if stage 1 and 2 are constructed concurrently they will still be completed a decade after Allianz is finished. So 2035 instead of 2045.

Completion times weren't my original point. The validity of a Moore Park station was, and I made some suggestions as to why it might be possibly built
You're shifting the goal posts now as much as Pou does.

Anyhow, in 2012, who would have thought there'd be a Metro from Rouse Hill to Chatswood by 2019?

 

[Eelogical]

Ground is still too big for their fans.

You could park your car in Henson Park and watch the game like you were at the drive-in, way back. Is that still possible?

 

[strider]

It sure does.
I hope that has been taken into account with the capacity claim of 30000.

the 30 people sitting behind the scoreboard will have an excellent view of it .... just maybe not the best side of it

Like you needed an excuse to do that.

 

[BoneyBlake17]

Does the fact we have hardly had any rain recently meant the stadium hasn't had any delays. And is possibly ahead of schedule

Not an excuse, just the point where I will finally stop

There's a space invader on the roof of the building opposite the stadium.

It's possible. The weather has certainly been very kind with very few days lost.

 

[Kornstar]

It's a sexy beast, that's for sure.

I've been going to Parra more for work the last few weeks and parking in the old pools carpark. It is a magnificent beast!!!

I also have a great view of it from the office.

So, just a regular day then?

 

[strider]

I hope they remember they need to get the cranes out ... gonna be a bitch to have to side step around

The good news is that Bev might be able to catch a bomb up there.

Ministerial media release

The operator of the future Western Sydney Stadium has been appointed in a key milestone for the project.

Minister for Sport Stuart Ayres said VenuesLive, the operator of Sydney's ANZ Stadium and Optus Stadium in Perth will oversee day-to-day management of the Stadium which is under construction on the site of the former Pirtek Stadium at Parramatta.

The contract will see VenuesLive managing events and catering, securing event content and ticketing.

“In a little over a year we will deliver a world class entertainment precinct that will inject millions of dollars into the Western Sydney economy and redine the fan experience.” Minister Ayres said.

“Western Sydney is no stranger to showing the rest of Sydney how it is done and this stadium will be no different, it will attract top name acts and sporting blockbusters and boast the latest technology and seats closer to action than ever before.

VenuesLive Chief Executive Officer Mr Daryl Kerry said: “VenuesLive is delighted to be partnering with the NSW Government to operate Western Sydney Stadium, which will set new standards in live sport and entertainment when it opens in 2019.

“We will leverage our team’s extensive management and operations expertise to introduce world-class events in Western Sydney and deliver a truly fans-first live sport experience.”

The Chairperson of Venues NSW, Christine McLoughlin, said: “VenuesLive has demonstrated its capability to deliver fantastic events and outstanding venue management, and we are excited to be working with VenuesLive as we look toward the opening of Western Sydney Stadium.”
