The 14,500 square metre Pride Park Arena will include a 250m indoor cycling track and a 1.5km outdoor closed cycle circuit. The playing area within the track will be large enough for 12 badminton courts. The arena will also house a large gym and exercise studios as well as catering and hospitality facilities.
The Arena has been designed to host a wide range of sports and hold an audience of 5,000.
鈥淲e have designed an iconic building which will compliment Pride Park Stadium, but will also function as a stand-alone facility鈥� said Mace project director David Grose. 鈥淭he sculptured form will be very striking, exhibiting fluidity and movement to reflect the activities taking place inside.鈥�
Contract notices will be published in the Official Journal of the European Journal (OJEU) later this month.
