Dubai Cricket Stadium

As part of a joint venture with Belbadi Contracting, ALPINE constructed a cricket stadium in Dubai Sports City. This is yet another world-class sports arena constructed by us. The stadium fulfils the highest requirements of modern construction techniques and its unique roof construction means that it is also a visual landmark in Dubai. Dubai Sports City will see even more facilities being constructed, e. g. a shopping mall and a multi-function stadium for soccer, rugby and athletics. The Dubai Cricket Stadium was designed by the internationally renowned architects Gerkan, Marg and Partners, based in Germany, who already had designed the New Berlin Olympic Stadium and the Commerzbank Stadium in Frankfurt. The Dubai Cricket Stadium, together with its additional facilities, was handed over in time for the opening game on the 22 April 2009. The game between Pakistan and Australia ended 171-6 to 168 in favour of Pakistan. FEATURES -The roof structure was constructed in a cross-vaulted style. Steel trusses were covered with a laminated PTFE membrane. The structure provides cover for all the seats in the arena and offers protection from the sun and wind. - The roof pitch meets today’s ICC standards. - The 82 seats for sports journalists and 7 commentator boxes meet the requirements of today’s media. - ALPINE constructed one of the most modern sports stadiums in the world in just 28 months.
