  • Allianz Stadium Redevelopment – Key Partner Question and Answer
    Allianz Stadium Redevelopment – Key Partner Question and Answer Why is the NSW Government redeveloping stadiums at Parramatta, Sydney Olympic Park and the SCG precinct? The NSW Government has invested to redevelop Sydney stadia to ensure Sydney is the sporting capital of Australia. The decision provides greater ability for the NSW Government to keep Sydney’s venues viable in order to secure the major events in NSW that can generate more jobs and economic activity. Why are we knocking down Allianz Stadium? Allianz Stadium is now 30 years old and has reached the end of its useful life. It has provided the stage for some of Australia’s biggest sporting moments including rugby league grand finals, Bledisloe Cups and FIFA World Cup qualifiers. But just as we outgrew the Sydney Sports Ground in the mid-1980s, the time has come to develop the next generation world-class rectangular stadium in Sydney’s original sporting precinct. Why are we spending so much on new stadiums when schools and hospitals should be the priority? The NSW Government’s investment of roughly $2 billion is budgeted to be spent over a period in which the health and education budgets tally more than $400 billion. The economic impact of the SCG Trust’s operations to the NSW economy is estimated at nearly $1 billion per year, with ANZ Stadium providing a similar benefit. The NSW Government’s investment in stadium infrastructure will be paid back in one year, and the new stadiums will provide an even greater economic benefit, with thousands of new jobs tied to the construction of the venues.
