Then I need to hurry up if I want to see the good old Mestalla.
Do you know if it is easy to get tickets, or a way to get tickets (Banco Valencia?)

I need to check this one out...

It's an impressive structure and an interesting approach to the exterior, but as I have just posted on the Bilbao stadium thread, cant help think these allianz arena lookalikes are poorly proportioned as regards the size of each tier, and their positioning. There is no overlapping, and therefore no economy of space nor minimising of viewing distances. Maybe I'm missing the reasoning, or cultural differences are reflected in this design and I'm missing the arguments for this approach. Personally, I thought the Mestalla did much of that quite well considering it was a gradually built structure. It's misgivings were obvious in the modern era, but a great football amphitheatre nevertheless.

Overlapping only seems to be utilised to deal with space restrictions. Thats part of the reason why I like stadiums in urban areas. The restrictions end up contributing to the stadiums character.

I agree totally....... necessity is the mother of great stadia. That said, you would have thought that the potential material savings with narrower superstructures would also be beneficial and cost effective...... not to mention the benefits of bringing people closer to the action, intimacy, atmosphere etc.

FrankWhite · May 20th, 2007, 10:28 AM

looks really cool.
but i have to say that the mestalla is/ was one of my absolute favorite stadiums...simple and beautiful

matherto · May 20th, 2007, 03:29 PM

it's yet another stadium, like Allianz, where all the flair is focused on the exterior of it. The interior is really just a boring bowl, which is dissapointing

Mo Rush · May 20th, 2007, 04:03 PM

still not sure if i like the exterior..something less over the top would have been better..it doesnt responsd or interact with the surrounds.
