Plans submitted for 90-metre-high structure in east London that will hold 21,500 people and generate 4,300 jobs during construction
Details and designs have been revealed for the MSG Sphere London, a planned venue that would hold up to 21,500 people. That capacity would make it the largest concert arena in the UK, outstripping Manchester Arena (capacity 21,000) and London’s O2 Arena (20,000).
The Madison Square Garden Company (MSG), which is behind the New York concert and sports venue of the same name, have bought a 1.9-hectare (4.7-acre) site in Stratford, adjacent to the Olympic Park and Westfield shopping centre, that was used as a coach park during the 2012 London Olympics.
