MHP Arena Modernisation

© Arnim Kilgus

For the UEFA EURO 2024, the MHP Arena in Stuttgart was modernized once again. As part of this, the main grandstand, tiers and fan sections were expanded while the stadium was in operation. The main grandstand, which dates from 1974, was completely renovated and extended up to the roof beams. This created new functional sports rooms, a new hospitality area and a new press conference room and supply corridor on level 1.
Since all construction work was carried out on the existing building, interventions in the building stock had to be reduced to a minimum and increases in load had to be avoided. The existing load-bearing system was largely retained. The demolition edge was designed to ensure that the load transfer was maintained throughout the entire construction period and in the final state. The conversion created almost 2,000 additional standing places in the Cannstatter fan curve, as well as a separate area with wheelchair places. The building material resulting from the dismantling of the grandstands was recycled. Technical components and parts of the existing interior fittings were reused as much as possible in the reconstruction. Material that could not be reused was recycled by a specialist company, which significantly reduced the amount of construction waste.
Thanks to continuous development and innovative optimization of the existing facilities, one of the most modern arenas in Europe has been created, which is fully committed to sustainability.
