ESSMA will organize its first event of 2017 in Leicester, at the King Power Stadium and LCFC training center. John Ledwidge and his team, together with ESSMA Advisory Committee member Jonathan Calderwood, will welcome us for the Pitch Workshop on 10-11 May.
ESSMA developed a report on the impact of UEFA EURO 2016 on French stadium development. This report combines learnings and outcomes from different sources: 1) Rapport Grand Stades EURO 2016 2) ex-ante assessment of the economic impact of EURO 2016 and the economic and social impact of EURO 2016 by Centre de Droits et d’Economie du Sport (CDES) 3) Stadium Development panel discussion from the ESSMA Summit 2017 in Lyon, France.
The possibilities new stadiums offer to clubs can be stated with various examples: increased stadium attendances, bigger budgets (through higher ticketing revenues, branding and improved revenues of F&B and hospitality) and higher supporter/visitor satisfaction rates.
Get an impression of ESSMA’s successful 2016. We enjoyed a great Summit in Bilbao, an inspiring small & medium sized stadium tour to Switzerland, Austria and Hungary and our second USA Fan Experience Tour took us to the West Coast, San Francisco, Los Angeles and Las Vegas.
