Kai Tak Sports Park new images – designer says complex combines sports, business and community like nowhere else in the world
- The 28-hectare Park features a 50,000-seater main stadium, 10,000-capacity indoor arena and a 5,000-seat sports ground – along with retail space and leisure facilities
- It is unique in terms of scale or level of integration between community, sports, entertainment and retail facilities, designer Populous says
Hong Kong’s Kai Tak Sports Park will serve to integrate sports, businesses and the community like nowhere else on earth, said its designer after releasing the latest renderings of the city’s biggest-ever sporting infrastructure project.
The 28-hectare Park on the site of the former Hong Kong International Airport is due to be completed in late 2023, providing a 50,000-seater main stadium, 10,000-capacity indoor arena and a 5,000-seat sports ground – along with retail space and leisure facilities.
“We are excited to be able to share new images of Kai Tak Sports Park, to paint the picture of these world-class facilities for the community as well as for international visitors to Hong Kong,” said Richard Breslin, senior principal & director of Populous – the architecture firm appointed to design the complex.
“Nothing of the scale or level of integration between community, sports, entertainment and retail facilities designed for Kai Tak Sports Park exists anywhere else in the world.”
The renderings, released this week, highlights the design progress of the project, which they say will be one of the world’s leading multipurpose sports and entertainment precincts when completed.
