Truely amazing!

It frightens me that it's going to cost the same as the new Lansdowne Road and yet is superior and larger in every possible way.

Pretty damn cool, but why do you think its the best in the world. Thats a serious question, not sarcasm.

Looks a lot like the new Arizona Cardinals stadium.

Same architect?

***BrizzyChris*** · November 11th, 2006, 05:46 AM

Amazing stadium. Seems like stadiums are the new hotspot for unique architecture.

ØlandDK · November 11th, 2006, 05:04 PM

You can only define the best stadium in the world by the one that has the best facilites. You can speculate all you want on the best looking stadium or the one with the best atmosphere, but you will never get a true final answer as it's down to individual opinion. So until we actually know what the detailed specifications of the stadium are, who can say?

Neda Say · November 11th, 2006, 07:51 PM

Ok that stadium is just the best design I 've seen in years for a stadium. However isn't it suppose to house an athletic track in order to welcome the Valencia track and field championship bid. But what I like the most is the price!!! Now I don't believe that you can do a 75000 seater for that little or is spanish workforce really that cheap!?
Anyway this thing is just stunning

Vilak · November 11th, 2006, 08:29 PM

funny though Neda Say.
I'm absolutly in love with this incredibly beautiful look.
Astonishing!

300 million Euros is a lot (at least for European standards...I know that some American stadiums cost more). All German wc stadiums for example cost less (including the Allianz Arena).

Say me any football (not Olympic or athletic) stadium in Europe, that cost more

Gelsenkirchen: 191.000.000€ for 52.000. 3.673€/p
Munich: 280.000.000€ for 66.000. 4.200€/p
Frankfurt: 126.000.000€ for 48.000. 2.600€/p
Hamburgo: 97.000.000€ for 55.000. 1.800€/p
Leipzig: 91.000.000€ for 43.000. 2.100€/p
JOSE ALVALADE (Lisboa) 80.000.000€ for 52.000. 1.500€/p
DO DRAGAO (Oporto) 98.000.000€ for 52.000. 1.888€/p
ESTADIO DE LA LUZ (Lisboa) 119.000.000€ for 65.000. 1.800€/p
Saint Dennis, Paris 426.000.000$- 331.000.000€ for 80.000. 4.100€/p
New Wembley, London. 1.000.000.000€ for 90.000. 11.000€/p, but this include not only the stadium, and this is NOT a FOOTBALL stadium. And of course, London is London.

Mestalla: 300.000.000€ for 75.000. 4.000€/p

Only Munich and Saint Dennis cost more. And only about 200€/p

385.000.000 $

Really shit I think you are gonna find a lot of pissed off English people when they go there and people are playing Eton fives.

Wembley IS a football stadium, it is just going to be used for other sports such as Rugby League and perhaps athletics if London bids for the world athletics championships.

brunob · November 11th, 2006, 08:48 PM

Best in the world, i don't know, depends on the criterias, but it sure is a beauty. Well done Valencia, once again.

Martuh · November 11th, 2006, 09:13 PM

Too bad. Mestalla is such a beauty.

sroigmas · November 11th, 2006, 09:55 PM

Look at this presentation: Video 1

One more: Video 2

The Stadium has been made with the assembly of 16 pieces that symbolize all the districts of our city (see the videos). The "cut" that crosses the pieces (districts) is the Turia river.

Sorry for my English
