Cool, looks nice.

Incredibly good news! I'm so happy. Bordeaux actual stadium, although it have its caché, is not a valuable asset for the team's goal to become a Great french club.

Thank to Angelion from Girondins4ever.

IMO 42,566 is the EURO net capacity.
So real cap. would be around 45k

All these renderings have nothing official !

PS: I can't wait to see the Herzog & de Meuron proposal :cheers: !!!!!

The first article talking about 43k. But we have a big lack of information, like always in Bordeaux, that is a city of confidentiality. (like the picture with the architectes names: Barué and Boutet, that is the first time that I read their names)

Let's wait until next Mondays, 31th May. The city council will vote to start or not the PPP. But after the Euro 2016 host annoncement, I've no more doubt about having a new stadium in Bordeaux.:banana:

All these renderings have nothing official !

PS: I can't wait to see the Herzog & de Meuron proposal :cheers: !!!!!
Yes, of course.

Same for me, I like Herzog & de Meuron realisation but also Jean Nouvel. Let's wait to see all projects.

You can't manage to built it until due date hopefully.

You can't manage to built it until due date hopefully.

Shh!... don't said that or France will not host Euro2016. :lol:

No, for sure. The realistic date, which was know, is mid 2015. That is the deadline for Euro2016 (one year before the competition) because it is always accepted to have some delay.

But I guess this is the same for you and well know and accepted by everybody.

Nevertheless they try to accelerate the projet as much as possible.

That is the deadline for Euro2016 (one year before the competition)

Actually the UEFA deadline is now 2 years before (thanks to Ukraine..all their fault :D)

But anyway, BX new stadium (which is the less advanced in terms schedule, amongst our 12 stadiums) is planned to be completed for early 2014, as far I know !

All these renderings have nothing official !

PS: I can't wait to see the Herzog & de Meuron proposal :cheers: !!!!!

Personally, I can't wait to see Nouvel's proposal :)

Yesterday, the french national channel France has showed in the 20h new another project for Bordeaux.

See enclose the Michel Petauaud-Letang architect project:

Great! Do you have a link please? thanks

^^ http://jt.france2.fr/20h (http://jt.france2.fr/20h/) (see: édition du Samedi 29 mai)

Petauaud -Letang project is some kinda ...... Ugly! :D

I like both project so I favor the one which will be expandable at the lower cost.

Why would you need a roofed stadium in Bordeaux?! Bordeaux is already building a 14000 seats arena! It doesn't rain that often, actually the weather is very good in the area. Why would the city waste a hundred million extra for a roof!?

I guess the idea of the roof comes from JLT, Girondins president. He talk about the Gelredome (Vitesse Arnhem Stadium) because he has visted this stadium and he said that he would like to have the same at Bordeaux.

But you have right, the additional cost of this roof, which is estimate around 20~30M, is not need in the south west part of France.

Shh!... don't said that or France will not host Euro2016. :lol:.

You're trying to force women to kiss a model of the proposed Bordeaux Stadium... or when it is completed, the stadium itself. counter:lol:

2016 = bad year.

SudOuest (Local Newspaper) give today the names of all current candidats for the stadium of Bordeaux, the maximum number is 5. They will be officially selected during a meeting this next thursdays.

Grand stade de Bordeaux : cinq candidats à la réalisation du projet
(trans: Big Bordeaux Stadium: 5 candidats to project realisation.)
[...]:

Lavalin-Barclays associés à Eiffage construction et les architectes Luc Arsène-Henry et Pierre Ferret.

DV Construction (groupe Bouygues) avec Quille et CDC, associés aux architectes Valode et Pistre.

Vinci Concession, Vinci Construction et Fayat associés aux architectes Herzog et de Meuron

Grand Canal, Buildin et Martifer associés à l'architecte Michel Petuaud-Letang.

Solefim, Sacyr et Cofely associés à Foster et VBNB architectes.




So Jean Nouvel's architect for Bouygues was a rumor wrong.

See First post

Does anyone know the company Grand Canal?

Maybe Nouvel wasn't a rumor but Bordeaux's budget for this stadium is very very cheap... Nouvel is reputed for his ingenious ideas and often very expansive... whereas Valode et Pistre are more reputed for the cheapness of their ideas!

Anyway, Foster is in the game it should be interesting, but I bet on the win of Herzog and De Meuron

Yesterdays, the committe of Bordeaux's Town Hall has selected only 3 candidats (only the french ones). So Exit Foster.

The Candidates are:
- Lavalin-Barclays associated to Eiffage construction & Luc Arsène-Henry / Pierre Ferret architects.
- DV Construction (Bouygues Group) with Quille & CDC, associated with Valode & Pistre architects.
- Vinci Concession, Vinci Construction & Fayat associated with Herzog et de Meuron

Candidates for the construction, Vinci, Bouygues and Eiffage, must submit their bids this morning at the mayor of Bordeaux.

Sudouest newspaper said also that:
Budget too short

Precisely, the budget seems a little short. With "only" 165 million euros, none of the three candidates from entering the envelope reveals a source close to the matter. But to clarify: "This is the challenge of the coming weeks, the principle of competitive dialogue, the major assets will not be slaughtered immediately. "
It is true that for a stadium of this size (43,500 seats), the prices are one step above, in a range between 200 million and 250 million euros. The difference is considerable. This does not mean that the project will be stoped. In fact, builders can help change some clauses: the establishment of shops - but the area is saturated, and the President of CUB wants freeze on settlements; other option is the rent that the manufacturer will who operate and maintain the stadium for thirty years before returning to the community. There is still room for maneuver.

a roof skyrockets the final costs! they have to abandon it

a roof skyrockets the final costs! they have to abandon it

Not a bad idea. I'm not sure but I think Bordeaux aera weathers is pretty cool (at least for grapevine!).

Maybe the naming rights could help close the gap.

"so far, so good"

Next calendar:

- Bids Reception: December 7, 2010, opening Dec. 8
- Competitive Dialog: 18 December 2010 to March 18, 2011

http://www.lemoniteur.fr/147-transport-et-infrastructures/article/actualite/774129-nouveau-stade-de-bordeaux-precisions-sur-le-calendrier

So we can not expect something until the 13th July 2011.

Article in the local newspaper:
Bordeaux: the big stadium will be, but what can be the prize?

Bordeaux's Mayor confirm the stadium. Candidates for the build-operate are encouraged to seek additional revenue.

The stadium seats 43,500 (not anymore!) will take place in the axis of parking Bordeaux-Lac, near the velodrome.


Bordeaux : le grand stade se fera, mais à quel prix ?
Le stade se fera, la mairie de Bordeaux l'affirme. Les candidats à la construction-exploitation sont invités à chercher des recettes complémentaires.

What is really interesting to know:

1-The Mayor confirm the Stadium and the presentation will be durint the Town Hall council the 18th juillet. :banana:

2-The ground where the stadium will be built is a real sponge. This zone was before a swamp. This fact would increase the cost by 30M. :ohno:

i do hope the architects respect the current stadium Bordeaux has. I love it, it´s unique, had some Roman feeling to it. Hope to see something back in the designs.

not made for football Please no lescure again!! :ohno:
I ever thought it was one of the most ridiculous stadium in france despite it has good classic architecture but not made for football: it is an ancient velodrome

It´s beautifull, it´s an arena and no it´s not perfect.

Yes, it is "una magnifica arena", but don't be worry because some rumor said that it will be use for Rugby or Athletics sport in the futur.

For somebody doesn't know the Bordeaux's stadium:
http://www.football-pictures.net/data/media/282/Stade_Chaban_Delmas_FC_Bordeaux.jpg
Chaban Delmas Stadium (aka Parc Lescure) in Bordeaux, where play FCBG.

For the football, the new article say that:

"2- Major projects?

The three projects are original and quite remarkable in architectural terms. And despite the constraints. Financial constraints but also constraints arising from the specificities of the site. It is a former swamp and the land is narrow. 150 meters wide and 200 feet long roughly. The building can not be spread. What might have led the architects to submit works very compact, pure and airy."

So we expecting an impressive new stadium in Bordeaux, let's see in july.:banana:

This is caractar! I now it´s not perfect regarding steepness and everything, but I just love the area behind the goals! Good thing that it will not fade away.

The 6 May, the Newspaper "Le Parisien" give how the subvention from the french state will go to.

Marseille : 28M
Bordeaux : 28M
Lille : 28M
Lyon : 20M
Nice : 20M
Lens : 12M
Nancy : 8M
Saint-Etienne : 8M
Toulouse : 6M
Paris : 0M
Saint-Denis : 0M

http://www.girondins4ever.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/stade.jpg

sorry I did found how to down size this picture.

+8M for Bordeaux.:banana:

So the minimum budget move up from 165M to 173M (100M from Girodndins 28M State; 3x15M City/CUB/Region) even if at the end we expecting a budget around 200M.

i think the reserve stadium will be toulouse and st etienne.

The less ambitious

Nope, reserves are Nancy and Saint Etienne ;)

ça change !
L'emplacement est vraiment excentré :ohno:

The interior looks pretty boring, whilst the exterior (all those roof support posts) is just a copy of the new stadium in Brasilia.

Thinking about it, the exterior is pretty much what Herzog & de Meuron had planned for the new Portsmouth stadium. Ah, lazy architects. :ohno:

Then by end of 2012-debut 2013

Herzog, the architect

I'm like the architect on the picture, a little be suprized. :lol:

Ok, it is perhaps nice. But it is a little too "modern" for me. But I agree that it will be very différent compare to other. Let's wait.

too "modern"?? no i think

From exterior ok it is like a museum but inside it has nothing more modern than actual stadiums imo.

It doesn't produce a surprise effect when you see classical tribunes.

I'm talking about outside aspect.

For in, which is the most important, it is very fine and I very impress by the efficiency of the architecture compare to budget and to other constrains (ground, orientation, etc) :cheers:

Very nice!

I like the exterior, very classical looking, kinda reminds me of a squared up brasillia stadium, but thats not a bad thing imo :cheers:

Its very elegant, with an amazing delicate/thin quality to it for a stadium. Very crisp and looks great in a park like site. Don't know if its quite up to their Portsmouth proposal, but its got a realistic budget and is actually happening. Could be my favorite French stadium, though the new Lille one is promising and I have always really loved the end stands of the Stade Gerland. Anyway looks like it could be the class of the tournament from my perspective.

very nice stadium

That's superb, I think I want to cry, we should have had this.

Stadium - Signature of the partnership contract
Signature of the partnership contract for the new Bordeaux stadium

Friday 28 October 2011 - 22h59

http://www.girondins.com/sites/default/files/imagecache/accueil_vignettes_grandes/upload/stade/signature-stade-triaud_01.jpg
Signature of the partnership contract for the new Bordeaux stadium between the VINCI Concessions-FAYAT consortium, the Municipality and FC Girondins de Bordeaux.


• A multi-functional stadium with 40,000 seats meeting UEFA EURO 2016 criteria
• A 30-year partnership contract starting on date of availability
• Total construction cost: €166 million
Alain Juppé, mayor of Bordeaux, and Xavier Huillard, Chairman-CEO of VINCI, representing the Stade Bordeaux Atlantique consortium bringing together VINCI Concessions and the FAYAT group, have signed a partnership contract in the presence of Clément Fayat, chairman of FAYAT. The contract, spanning 30 years from the date of commissioning of the facility, covers design, financing, construction, operation and maintenance of the new Bordeaux stadium, with a capacity of 40,000 places for UEFA EURO 2016.

In parallel, the Municipality and the FC Girondins de Bordeaux football club, in the presence of its Chairman- CEO Jean Louis Triaud and Nicolas de Tavernost, representing M6, the Club's sole shareholder, signed an agreement whereby the Municipality will make the infrastructure available to the club, participate in financing the project via an initial injection of €20 million and thereafter via an annual rental of €3.8 million for 30 years.

The VINCI Concessions-FAYAT consortium, named preferred bidder in July this year, has completed financing of the contract, which represents a total investment of €219 million. The financing package consists of longterm debt of €114 million, without recourse to the shareholders, of a maximum maturity of 32 years, and an equity injection of €10 million, shared equally between the two shareholders. It is supplemented by a total subsidy of €75 million, spread between the State (€28 million), the City of Bordeaux (€17 million), the Aquitaine Region (€15 million) and the Bordeaux Urban Community (€15 million).

VINCI and FAYAT have commissioned the international architects Herzog & de Meuron, which designed the Munich Allianz Arena Stadium and the Beijing Olympic Stadium. The project, located in the Bordeaux Lac neighbourhood, will meet UEFA criteria with a view to hosting Euro 2016 games. It will stand out from other sports stadium thanks to its unusual, almost square shape and will combine sober classicism and transparency, with tall columns holding the "bowl" of the grandstands.

Construction will be entrusted to a consortium of companies consisting of VINCI Construction France, consortium leader, through its subsidiaries GTM Bâtiment Aquitaine-Limousin and Faure Silva, and the FAYAT group, through its companies SEG-FAYAT, Razel et Castel & Fromaget. Upkeep and maintenance of the New Stadium will be entrusted to VINCI Facilities.

Stade Bordeaux Atlantique, a joint subsidiary of VINCI Concessions and FAYAT SA, will handle operation of this multi-functional facility in partnership with FC Girondins de Bordeaux. It will cater to sporting, cultural, musical and corporate events. The operating company will be paid in the form of an annual rental from the Municipality and also through the proceeds of activities from resident club matches. Use of this new stadium as of the 2015-2016 season will allow FC Girondins de Bordeaux to generate resources to ensure its long-term competitiveness.

VINCI Concessions has been operator of the Stade de France under a concession contract since 1998, the MMArena Stadium in Le Mans since 2011 and holds the future operating contract for the Nice Stadium, which will be delivered in 2013. These projects illustrate VINCI's capacity to develop solutions meeting the needs of public authorities in the field of major sports and leisure facilities.

With operations in over 100 countries and 18,000 dedicated employees, FAYAT works in France and throughout the world to provide effective technical solutions in construction and public works, metal structures, electricity and road-building, handling and boiler-making equipment. The Group, whose registered office is in Bordeaux, posted turnover of €2.7 billion in 2010.

FC Girondins de Bordeaux, a professional football club and six-time French champion, became a 99.9% subsidiary of the M6 Group in 1999. With the high – and unique in France – level of its investment in this new stadium project, M6 reaffirms its attachment to the Club and the City of Bordeaux and its firm determination to see FC Girondins de Bordeaux retain its status as one of the key clubs in French football.

Hi,

Bordeaux will have a new stadium quite interesting designed by Herzog&de Meuron. you can see infos about it in www.bordeaux2030.fr

and here:

Deleted

I dont like the seats, hope a diferent.
http://img84.imageshack.us/img84/3434/bordeaux18.jpg

^^ This one is the rejected project

I'm confused by one thing. The cross sections posted show 64 rows (32 on bottom, 32 on top) and yet the are only 42,000 places? Is that correct?

Sure seems to. The VIP side of the lower level is substantially smaller, but that still seems like it should give more than 42,000. For reference the Metrodome has 64,121 seats in 69 total rows (36 lower, 2 suite, 31 upper). This stadium seems to have more aisles, but if those sections are accurate it would look to be at least 50,000.

The work will begin in october instead of december, according to the city of Bordeaux : http://www.sudouest.fr/2012/04/17/grand-stade-de-bordeaux-les-travaux-commenceront-en-octobre-690840-4812.php (french)

the problem with this stadium is aerial. Too open on concourses and the wind will be important

It has a very cold architecture. I'm sorry but it is the less glamour new stadium in france now.

^^
http://img.over-blog.com/720x426/3/54/89/84/nouveaustade_10b.jpg

It's true that when you see this render, you can be worried about exposure to wind.


After, with regard to the architecture, it is a matter of taste. Personnally, this won't be my favourite stadium of the Euro 2016, but given the initial budget (165 M€), I find it not bad, and I appreciate the interior look.

the interior is quite normal and cool but the roof produces a very cold and unpersonal visual.

I hope fans will make the job because when Bordeaux plays well it's hard to beat them

The local newspaper of Bordeaux (SudOuest) said today that the key document (building permit application) was delivred. We can expect a building start this fall.

link in french: http://www.sudouest.fr/2012/05/24/l-ecrin-des-girondins-723521-766.php?reagir=true

Good news.

Yes, I read the news in Info-stades too.
But it's not clear how sure is the planning ? The opposition complaint may delay the building according to Bordeaux's mayor.

^^ As for every major project, there is a period required to purging the remedies, so there is always an incertitude when a schedule is announced (I think you know it, since the time you're on the forums ;)).

But in our case, and as said by Alain Juppé, the project is solid, the opposition is more about the form (politicians you know...) and I think there won't be too much delay compared to the announced date.

Sure ! I mean : do they wait for fall to purge remedies (thanks for vocabulary because I didn't know how to say that in English) or is it the initial planning, regardless of the remedies... Which would mean the probability of delay is very high.

Ok, I understand what was your question, but, unfortunately I am unable to answer it... In the case where it's the initial planning, certainly there may be delays, but they should not be very important because the stadium will be ready for the Euro, and even a year before according to the criteria of the UEFA.


As regards to the vocabulary, I must thanks Google translation for each of my post on the international forum, you have to try it ! :D.

The building permit application was delivred finally the 27th of August.

Fantastic news, can't wait for the start of works !! :cheers:

Hi - where did you find this out from? It's a great looking stadium. I'm looking forward to seeing construction begin!

^^ Hi, and welcome to the forum ! This is an info from the french forum info-stades : http://www.info-stades.fr/forum/ligue1/bordeaux-nouveau-stade-euro-2016-t14-1380.html#p96530 (if you read the french)
There is nothing official for the moment, but this info comes from the communication manager of the company.

It'll be great to see this off the ground. The transformation of French stadia for the Euro Championships will be great.

Yeah, it'll be great to see Portsmouth's stadium finally built. Oh... ;)

Yeah, it'll be great to see Portsmouth's stadium finally built. Oh... ;)

In administration again - I feel very sorry for Portsmouth fans who are enduring this.

i really like the renders, looks very nice, although, on the trhead title says that the attendance would be 42k, but in the renders looks a littl bigger, between 45 and 50, well it doesnt matter, i found a really nice surprise clicking by the first time on this thread, i really loved this proposal, well, the renders

Hi there,

How to resize the image???:bash:

^^ Nice pics Deamond, but could you please reduce them ;)... 'cause I don't have a 130-inch screen on the MacBook I use right now..... and I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one to have such an issue with your large (but great) pics :).






PS: Sorry, I didn't see your question at the bottom of your post.
So, in order to be able to select among different sizes for the photos you want to post on internet forums... May I (strongly) suggest you imageshack.us (http://imageshack.us) :angel:

Ok, I don't use it so much. Now it is better.

But imageshack is nice, thank for the tips. :)

any updates ?

^^ No significant progress, they are still working on the earthworks.

Wait, there's a part in that plan called 'Tatooine'?

Presume one of the stands is going to be called Naboo and Bordeaux will be sponsored by the Trade Federation from now on.

Luke Skywalker on the wings.

Trade federation ?

They're not even ewoks ... :nuts:

Otherwise, it seems that the cladding for the facade has been chosen, here is the selected one :

http://www.info-stades.fr/forum/ressources/image/33368

cheapest choice as usual.

^^ ??? (:dunno:)

Yeah, it looks kinda cheap imo :|

^^ If you say so... (:dunno:)

Personally, I must say that I preferred the "smooth" version of the cladding, but I'm not a specialist to say if it was the cheapest option or not.

Anyway, I don't think it is of vital importance, since, seen from afar, we won't see much difference.

Next monday will be the laying of the foundation stone. :cheers:

The latest updates on the site :
- the concrete plant has been installed
- the first crane is mounted, the second one in progress
- piles continue to be dug.

even in bordeaux you have already a crane.In comparison with madrid peneita that i don't understand the logic behind :ohno:

What's there to not understand? You can clearly see that they're not rushing in Madrid, while here you have several times more resources on site and a tight deadline by UEFA, so no wonder it's going faster.

Looks like a square version of the Brasilia stadium. But since I'm a fan of Brasilia's stadium, I love it. =)

The renders have been updated, there is no significant changes but some adjustments :
