Roland Garros Stadium
Paris, France
Home to the French Open tennis tournament, the stadium will have a striking look with this new center court complex. Incorporating world-class amenities for spectators, VIPs, players and the press, the main court will accommodate 15,000 fans (with 35 luxury suites) and features a retractable roof — allowing for play in inclement weather and a greater variety of events year-round. Two additional indoor courts will seat 2,000 and 1,000 spectators, respectively. The facility is intended to be the permanent home for the ATP BNP Masters Tennis Tournament. Project design is in collaboration with Atelier Christian de Portzamparc.
