Eden Park is New Zealand’s national stadium and the first stadium in Australasia to achieve the globally recognised WELL Health-Safety rating. Revered around the globe as the spiritual home of New Zealand sport, the venue hosts a range of content from sports to concerts to community, arts and cultural events.
Throughout 2021 in the midst of the COVID 19 pandemic, Eden Park was cast under a global spotlight, both as one of the only stadia operating globally through the year, and having recently being ranked as the number one concert venue in the world by Pollstar.
As WELL Accredited Professionals, NDY took the globally recognised stadium on the WELL Health-Safety journey. WELL Health-Safety provides a platform to recognise, promote and in some cases bring facilities and buildings ‘up to spec’ to provide clean, safe, healthy and prepared spaces for occupants to return to across the world. WELL Health-Safety benchmarks the performance of facility against the following categories:
- Cleaning and sanitisation procedures
- Emergency preparedness programs
- Health services resources
- Air and water quality management
- Stakeholder engagement and communication.
The project also delivered:
- Improved cleaning practices
- Emergency preparedness and business continuity plans
- Smoke-free environment.
Eden Park is proud to be leading the industry with this global WELL Health-Safety Rating.
“Our venue has always placed the highest importance on health and safety, so receiving the WELL Health-Safety seal just confirms that Eden Park is setting the standard for stadium buildings and public spaces across Australasia,” said Eden Park Chief Executive Officer, Nick Sautner.
