Hitting the sweet spot – see for yourself how Lee Valley’s world class venues blend community activation, major events and a commercial focus.
Here’s your chance to get under the skin of Lee Valley Regional Park Authority’s successful modern sporting venues. See how Lee Valley VeloPark, Lee Valley Hockey and Tennis Centre, Lee Valley Ice Centre, and Lee Valley Athletics Centre were specified, how the design process worked, what makes them tick financially and operationally.
Find out how community and commercial objectives dovetail, how venues need to adapt to changing demands and how they can be designed to complement the green space they sit in.
This 1-day IAKS UK and Ireland tour will also share what hasn’t gone to plan, how we’ve had to adapt, how we deal with a wide variety of challenges and how we are now planning for the next 20 years.
Who will attend?
The tour is aimed at venue operators, local authorities, consultants, architects, planners, and anyone in the industry looking to broaden their understanding of sport and leisure venues. The day is full of opportunities to network and interact with a range of professionals.
