It is proven that the most modern and sophisticated stadia in the world require modifications and enhancements, to meet the unique, albeit temporary, requirements of a FIFA world cup tournament.
These demands include accommodating the increased attendance across all constituent groups; segregated and dedicated access points and amenities; increased technical requirements for broadcasting and media; significant modifications to support enhanced operations for security, transport, protocol, hospitality, and marketing; and numerous other event related facilities.

ECG’s scope is providing the design consultancy for the various overlay elements that will be implemented into the stadium precincts. Overlay elements will be combined with existing infrastructure, to meet the specific requirements of the events of the tournament, such as the pedestrian queuing, security screening area, kiosks for merchandising, channel studios, bridges (cable and pedestrian), broadcasting compound, camera platform, commentator’s cabin, temporary video screens, mixed zone, office fit-out, directional signage, hospitality village, hospitality tent, cable conduit runs, hospitality build-out, media center fit-out, temporary fencing, control room fitout, and the temporary seating.
