ILT Stadium Southland is a world class, multipurpose, multi-functional venue, capable of conducting a wide range of event modes from large scale concerts to sporting events and exhibitions. Much more than a venue, ILT Stadium Southland is the energetic heart and pulse point of our Southern community. Incorporating the world class SIT Zero Fees Velodrome, the stadium complex has hosted a plethora of national and international events from all genres – sporting, recreational, cultural, arts, corporate and even equestrian.
We has seven wooden sprung multi-sport courts, an additional portable wooden court for elite sporting fixtures, 4 squash courts, 10 Clip 'N Climb walls, a climbing wall, and four function rooms, and an indoor velodrome of international calibre. The main sports arena in the stadium has a capacity of 4019, with retractable seating, all fully padded and many with cupholders. Stadium Southland's main complex was officially reopened on 9 May 2014 by Prime Minister John Key, and features world class facilities following an extensive redevelopment project.
Adjacent to the main ILT Stadium Southland complex, the SIT Zero Fees Velodrome is a truly multi-purpose multi-user venue designed to cater for an array of events, be it sporting, recreational, cultural, corporate or exhibitions. New Zealand's first 250m international indoor cycling velodrome was officially opened in May 2006 by then Prime Minister Helen Clark – and has been in use every day since then.
Of world-class standard, it features permanent seating for 1064 with views available all around the fully carpeted concourse. In the middle of the cycling track it has a pillar-less flat floor area of 2195m2 comprising of four full-size multi-sport courts with Rebound Ace surface. Motorised nets surround the courts which allow for the track and courts to be utilised at the same time.
Legends Lounges 1, 2, 3 and 4 are located in the ILT Stadium Southland complex. Legends Lounges 1, 2 and 3 have views of the main sports arena, while Legends Lounge 4 is an open space above the main foyer area and has roof to floor views looking out over the Surrey Park athletics oval. The dividing glass doors between each of the Legends Lounges 1-3, can be opened to create larger spaces.
The Sarah Ulmer Lounge and Champions Lounge are modern areas overlooking the spectacular and unique Velodrome and perfect for conferences, meetings or functions. The dividing walls between the two lounges can be removed to create one space for larger functions or for using the lounges separately for smaller meetings and seminars or for conference breakout areas.
