A sports stadium is the place to be if you want to watch a sporting event live. They are also the perfect venue for music concerts and other types of large gatherings, as these venues can hold large crowds of people.
Sports fans who frequent stadiums to watch their favorite sporting events already know the usual amenities and features: food stalls, restrooms, giant TV screens broadcasting the event live, and more. These are just basic elements of a regular stadium. However, there are now stadiums under construction or undergoing renovations that aim to lead the way in modernism and innovation in terms of facilities, amenities and features that are sure to surprise all attendees.
Below are some of these innovative amenities and features expected in the most modern sports arenas:
TVs in the seats. Although there are already video boards around the stadium, wouldn’t it be amazing if there was a TV screen in front of your seat? Although this feature may not be available in all seats, certain sections or areas of the stadium can certainly accommodate it. These televisions will certainly give fans the opportunity to watch the action live on the field in front of them while also following a different and interesting one.
Free WIFI. Unfortunately, not all stadiums are equipped to provide free Wi-Fi access to all spectators. Once stadiums offer this service, fans will have the same access to the latest scores and statistics from the league they are following while enjoying the unique experience of watching a game in person.
Customizable instant replays for each viewer. Once the TV and mobile devices are all connected via Wi-Fi, personalized content can start flowing. Fans will be able to view scores and fouls whenever they want while watching the game live. Without a doubt, they will be able to make better comments and share their opinions and experiences with others in real time as well.
Sports bars or lounges overlooking the field. Stadium owners now know that they can sell alcoholic beverages in more extravagant and expensive ways than just through traditional vendors and concession stands. And this is for having glamorous bars or lounges in their stadiums. When the bar or lounge allows fans a clear, unobstructed view of the field, they are sure to enjoy their time in those areas. These bars or lounges allow fans to enjoy two of their favorite scenes: the excited and loud sports bar crowd and the live game in front of them.
TV screens in the bathrooms. Lastly, the only place in the stadium where you’re likely to miss any action right now is in the bathroom. Spectators tend to spend a lot of time here as it is packed with other fans wanting to relieve themselves. Once there are TVs in the bathroom, you won’t be able to miss a minute of the game.
