Sports & Entertainment

We design sports and entertainment venues that combine innovation, inclusivity, and sustainability.

Designing vibrant spaces for sport and culture

These facilities host large audiences, embody civic pride, and must guarantee safety, comfort, and flexibility. Our designs integrate engineering excellence, acoustics, advanced lighting, and circulation planning to deliver optimal performance and enhance the spectator experience. Sener incorporates solutions such as Epigea, a fully automated retractable cover system that protects playing surfaces, enabling multi-event use, and Hypogea, which automatically repositions and stores pitch trays with integrated irrigation, heating, ventilation and drainage.

Venues that unite performance, identity, and inclusivity

Our sports and entertainment architecture is not only about structures but about creating spaces for gathering and community. By embedding cultural identity, inclusivity and advanced operational systems like Pitch Control, which uses sensors and predictive AI to optimise grass quality and water usage, we ensure that stadiums and arenas function as both civic landmarks and world-class venues.

Why choose us

Sener has delivered emblematic projects, including multipurpose auditoriums and large-scale cultural and sports facilities. Our multidisciplinary approach enables integration of complex systems such as automated retractable pitches, agronomic growth chambers and AI-enabled monitoring. These references demonstrate our capability to create operational infrastructures that are safe, versatile and sustainable, serving communities for decades.

How we work

We apply a lifecycle methodology tailored to sports and entertainment venues. Assessment includes capacity planning, acoustics, urban integration and sustainability objectives. Design integrates architectural vision with advanced engineering—covering structure, HVAC, lighting and crowd management—while implementing technologies like Hypogea and Velaria. EPC coordination ensures rigorous quality standards, and operations are supported by Respira for continuous monitoring, predictive maintenance and regulatory compliance.

We enhance user experience with technology and sustainable design

Our stadium solutions incorporate intelligent systems to improve crowd safety, comfort, and environmental performance. Automated pitch changeovers, agronomic growth chambers, and AI-driven environmental controls allow multipurpose use without compromising natural grass quality. Renewable energy integration, efficient lighting, and ventilation systems ensure each venue is functional, sustainable, and capable of hosting diverse events.

Global expertise with local impact

With projects and auditoriums across Spain and Europe, Sener has demonstrated its ability to adapt international best practices to local contexts. Our multipurpose arenas showcase how engineering and architecture can transform cities, attract cultural and sporting events and foster community identity.
