Optus Stadium located in Perth, Australia is one of Western Australia’s highest profile and most eagerly anticipated developments. The project team completed the stadium three weeks ahead of the schedule. The project is the winner of the Best Sports and Recreation category of Tekla Global BIM Awards 2018.
Optus Stadium opened in January 2018. The five-story-tall facility is the third largest venue in Australia and has the flexibility to host major AFL (Australian Football League), cricket, rugby union and league, soccer, and entertainment events. It completes the greater Sports Park, together with the new children’s playgrounds, community spaces, restaurant, bar and café facilities available year-round. Arup and PDC were involved from design through to construction completion, working within the Westadium Consortium led by Multiplex with architects and other consultants under the DBFM (Design Build Finance and Maintain) Project Agreement.
