On Another Note, does anyone know off-hand the material the Klagenfurt arena's roof is made of?


Looks like aluminum sheets..

Seen the tarps but they do not cover 5,000 seats or as you suggest about 15% of all seats (if capacity was 30,000). Yes it is higher than 25,000 but I would say closer to 26k than 30k.


I think as it's currently built it can only seat 26,000 and the 30,000 (or 35?) figure is what the stadium is supposed to be easily expandable to. I've never heard what 'easy' means in that context... it may be just reshuffling a few things, or it may be raising the roof and adding another level (which doesn't sound 'easy' to me... but I guess I can think of more complicated things...)

They can always expand inward.. Those big ugly concrete walls don't have to be there. Add a few more rows down towards the endline, closer to the pitch. Thats an extra few hundred maybe 1k seats right there.

No, but also remember, they do not sell the top two rows of the stadium either. Its a combination of both, plus the expansion capability...
