The Tasmanian Government has announced plans to construct a multi-purpose stadium at Regatta Point, on the foreshore in Hobart.
The new stadium will have capacity of up to 27,000 seats, a retractable roof, and will be designed to Australian Football League (AFL) specifications. This would be the second stadium of similar size and specifications in Hobart, alongside the Blundstone Arena at Bellerive, and the third in Tasmania, when considering the UTAS Stadium in Launceston.
The project is dependent on the Tasmanian Government achieving a licence from the AFL for a potential team based in Tasmania.
