ESTADIO CIUDAD DE VALENCIA (LEVANTE UD STADIUM)
Roof Structure, 2020, - Spain
Roof Structure, 2020, - Spain
The stadium “Ciutat de Valencia”, home of the spanish football club Levante UD, has a capacity of approx. 25,000 seats and it was built in the late ‘60s. Over the last few years, the stadium has become outdated, needing to get some significant improvements to be in compliance with La Liga’s broadcasting requirements and to offer fans a better matchday experience.
Due to its singular location, just inside the neighbourhood of the city and close to a council area, that didn't permit to be expanded, Levante UD studied a challenging renovation project which could give the vision of what a modern stadium should be, without violating the strict restrictions mentioned. The main objectives to be reached were to fulfil the broadcasting regulation, to add a new roof covering the entire perimeter of the stadium, to improve the lighting and sound system as well as a new SkyCam, to create a new concept for the overall fan experience. In this amazing project, Teufelberger-Redaelli was contracted to supplying and installing the entire cable net supporting the new roof, comprising FLC cables and steel struts, as well as the top membrane comprising PVC fabric and steel arches.
