Hospitality & Stadia
We generate value through the development, creation, operation and ownership of sports stadia and leisure facilities across the globe. Extensive intelligence and benchmarking data are the skills we use to strike the right balance between appearance, performance, and capital and lifecycle costs.
Gleeds’ sector specialists provide focused expertise on projects ranging from prestigious stadia and arenas to advanced training and spectator facilities for a range of professional sports.
Working both in the UK and internationally, we’ve delivered a total capacity of over 720,000 seats: eight times the size of Wembley Stadium in the UK.
Our clients include Sport England and national governing bodies, key facility operators, investors and owners, as well as hotels, spas, golf clubs and fitness facilities. We have a sound understanding of how to accommodate the varying requirements and aspirations of stakeholders.
We’ve worked on over £2.5 billion worth of leisure developments over the past five years.
We’ve been instrumental parts of successful teams, ensuring projects achieved all objectives and were completed to budget and on programme.
Throughout each project, we provide support at every stage – from the establishment of funding opportunities and the development of briefs, through to technical team appointment and management, construction, and beyond.
Leisure facilities
Leisure complexes are at the heart of the communities they serve, but can be expensive to construct and run. Our specialist teams use detailed benchmarking to create buildings that are appealing to users, while being cost-effective to develop, manage and maintain.
The amenities we’ve helped to deliver include:
- Entertainment and hospitality facilities
- Holiday resorts
- Swimming pools
- Libraries
- Cinemas
- Restaurants
- Visitor attractions.
Decisions informed by intelligence
Building costs can vary tremendously in this sector. Through our experience, we’ve gained detailed benchmarking data that we use to deliver projects cost-effectively, and help clients manage the asset economically over its life.
We also offer our building information modelling (BIM) capabilities to implement projects more easily.
