Hobart's new stadium to be 'largest timber, roofed' arena in the world | ABC News

New concept images of the proposed stadium at Hobart's Macquarie Point have been released — with the government saying when completed, the multipurpose arena "will be the largest timber, roofed stadium in the world".

The government says the design has been "informed" by the precinct's maritime heritage and history as a rail yard.

A formal process which will allow private backers to express interest in partnering with the government on the project is likely to commence in the coming weeks.
