The architectural firm Populous unveiled images of a multi-purpose arena in Toronto, Canada, designed to host music concerts, theatrical performances and esports competitions.

The 7000-seat stadium, which is expected to be completed in 2025, will be specially designed to facilitate eSports events, but with versatility it will also be able to host traditional events and concerts.

Export stadium
Not only esports: the new Toronto stadium has the versatility to transform itself into a splendid theater.

"The design of the theater was conceived neither as a sports arena nor as an opera house, rather, a new typology straddling the two: an avant-garde performance venue," he says. Jonathan Mallie, president of Populous.
