ARENA INSTALLS JAPAN'S LARGEST TEMPORARY
HOSPITALITY STRUCTURE FOR STH JAPAN
Arena Events Group plc (AIM: ARE), is pleased to announce that
it has completed the installation of the largest single temporary
hospitality structure ever installed in Japan, in partnership with
Omni International in Yokohama Japan, for a rugby tournament
starting this month.
The 3,800 square-meter facility, located at Shin Yokohama,
adjacent to the Nissan Stadium will host guests for all seven
matches at the Nissan Stadium.
This is the second time that Arena has worked at the world's
biggest rugby tournament after successful delivery in the UK in
2015. Arena was a key supplier in delivering multiple temporary
structures for hospitality and back of house areas, as well as
media facilities.
Sports Travel & Hospitality Japan (STHJ) was awarded the
contract as sole provider of hospitality for the tournament in
Japan in 2019 and will be offering a unique guest experience,
combining traditional western hospitality with Japanese Omotenashi,
the philosophy of Japanese hospitality. Arena has worked with STH
Group on a number of high-profile sporting events.
Paul Berger, CEO for Arena Middle East & Asia, said: "We are
honoured to be involved in the first ever Rugby World Cup in Asia.
It's been a pleasure to work with the team at STH Japan to deliver
this extraordinary facility that is sure to provide a memorable
experience for guests."
Martyn Lee, Head of Operations, STH Japan K K, said: "The Webb
Ellis Pavilion and Suites is our flagship temporary structure and
it has been a pleasure to have worked with Arena who, with their
local partners Omni International, have delivered an amazing
structure. We are confident the facility will exceed the
expectations of both our domestic and international clients and
guests, at this hugely exciting time for Japan to host the third
largest sporting even in the world."
Arena will return to Japan next year for the Summer Olympic
Games to install temporary seating for the Beach Volleyball Stadium
as well as numerous hospitality facilities.
