Huangshi Olympic Sports Centre Stadium (Chinese: 黄石奥体中心体育场) is a multi-purpose stadium located in Huangshi, Hubei, China. It forms the centerpiece of the Huangshi Olympic Sports Centre complex, which also includes a swimming facility and a fitness center—collectively known as "一场两馆" (one stadium and two venues).[1]
The stadium is an integral part of the larger Huangshi Olympic Sports Centre project, which covers approximately 870 mu of land (58 hectares) with a total built-up area of about 120,600 m². It is among the first major sports venues in China to utilize a public-private partnership (PPP) model, a move that reflects modern trends in infrastructure development in the country.[2] The design concept, encapsulated by the phrase "芙蓉出水, 白玉映山", merges regional aesthetics with contemporary architecture. Construction advanced rapidly in the mid-2010s, and by 2018 the stadium was completed to host several significant events, including the 15th Hubei Provincial Games.[3]
Facilities
The main stadium boasts a building area of approximately 43,000 m² and provides seating for 32,000 spectators, establishing it as one of the premier sports venues in the region. The overall complex includes additional facilities such as a swimming facility and a comprehensive fitness center, reinforcing its reputation as a hub for both professional sports and community activities.[4]
