In the historic aircraft hangars where Concorde was designed, built and tested, a supersonic new 19,500-capacity arena will stand.
As the first large-scale indoor arena and exhibition centre in the South West, YTL Arena Bristol will attract the world's biggest artists and events to Bristol.
A world-class entertainment destination like no other. One that will attract the biggest acts, bringing the best in live music, sport and entertainment to Bristol.
But YTL Arena Bristol's cultural impact will go way beyond being simply a platform for international superstars.
Local people will be at the heart of its purpose: A community stage will showcase up-and-coming local acts, bringing new opportunities and new voices to Bristol. The venue is also adopting a Living Wage policy for staff and 75% of supplies will come from local producers.
Alongside the Arena will be The Hub and Festival Hall, working together as one venue to encourage innovation and create a new home for Bristol’s creative community.
At The Hub, you’ll be spoilt for choice with pop-up shops, cafes, work spaces and leisure activities. The Festival Hall will boast an impressive 11,000 square metres of flat-floor exhibition space, making it the perfect venue for hosting conferences, trade shows and even live sport.
Finally, YTL Arena Bristol is being designed to be truly sustainable.
Reimagining the superstructure of the existing hangars will save 18,580 tonnes of Carbon. At the same time, rainwater harvesting and electricity-generating solar panels will help make the building Britain’s most sustainable entertainment venue.
YTL Arena Bristol will be a 365-day entertainment complex comprised of three separate bus interlinked areas: a supersonic 19,000-capacity arena, The Hub and Festival Hall.
Early-stage investigation and enabling work is underway, alongside detailed internal design and the road and rail connections needed.
As part of Brabazon - Bristol's best-connected new neighbourhood - YTL Arena will be accessible by road and rail.
