The tour will begin at the entrance of this brand new 6500 seater stand. You approach the stand at ground level, entering the open public concourse, which houses various bars, WCs and public facilities. Above this, the premium event spaces hang within the exposed precast frame of the stand.

We will continue upstairs through the premium hospitality suites, with fantastic dual views over both the main arena, and the show rings.

Finally, we will finish on the second level, exploring this external, exposed public concourse above the premium event spaces, and upper tier seating area. The tour will focus on the architectural features of this pared back precast design, as well as discussing some of the many challenges faced during the completion of this project.

Meeting point:  The Show Rings just inside the Anglesea gate.
