Albert Flórián Stadion – design description
Plans to build a new ground for Ferencavros have been presented since 2008 (new concept in 2010), but to date didn’t come to fruition. Third attempt bases on the same idea of rotating the stadium by 90 degrees and creating 22,600 seats under cover, some inside 29 modern skyboxes. However no commercial infrastructure next to the stadium is part of the plan at this point (it used to be in 2008 and 2010).
Construction is to last 16 months at the longest and will be financed by municipal authorities.
