In a boost to its Concert hosting credentials, Suncorp Stadium has been selected for the inaugural Stadium Stars lineup in IQ Magazine's forthcoming Global Stadium Report.
As part of IQ's new Global Stadium Report, the list recognises the 20 venues that represent the best concert experiences at this scale, as decided by the industry.
The venue was put forth by IQ Magazine voters & a panel of top production personnel, meaning it’s among the best of the best in the eyes of the live music industry.
The list considers aspects from ensuring fans have unforgettable experiences to making it easier for production crews and artists to work at their best and most efficiently.
Julie O’Keeffe Suncorp Stadium Interim General Manager said being included on this list was particularly welcome as it has come from within the industry.
“While we always want to give fans an unforgettable experience when they come to the Stadium, we also strive to be great hosts to the performers, production crews and promoters alike.
“Part of our Management model includes maintaining excellent relationships with stakeholders at all levels ensuring that putting on a concert here is as streamlined as possible.
“These experiences give artists and promoters the confidence to keep coming back like we’ve seen with Ed Sheeran who will return to the Stadium for the 4th time next February.
“Being acknowledged on the Global Stadium Stars list shows we’re doing a good job in that space.”
Suncorp Stadium - a venue of Stadiums Queensland Managed by ASM Global – has hosted 41 concerts since 2006.
Suncorp Stadium’s upcoming concert season includes shows from Metallica and Lady Gaga as well as a double performance by AC/DC in December before February’s British Invasion seeing the Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo and Ed Sheeran coming for four and three shows respectively in February.
