Alexander Stadium temporary grandstands ×

Project Overview

GL Events and Nolan Associates provided the additional seating required for the Commonwealth Games held in Birmingham July 2022.

In recent years, the stadium had undergone extensive redevelopment and modernisation, the increased legacy capacity is 18,000, quadrupling the number of spectators.

GL Events was an official partner to the Birmingham 2022 Commonwealth Games.

GL events UK  installed temporary grandstands, which increased the stadium’s Games-time capacity upwards of 32,000 spectators. All structures were designed by Nolan Associates.

In addition to the temporary seating grandstands to the North (6,674 seats) and South (7,612 seats) of the stadium, GL events UK also provided giant temporary lighting towers, video board infrastructure, containment, hospitality structures and media tribunes as part of their extensive overlay delivery.
