For Adele's only European concerts in 2024, Adele World was built, a temporary arena with around 80,000 seats, a huge stage and a theme park. On behalf of Leutgeb Entertainment Group and Live Nation Germany, NUSSLI was responsible for part of this event infrastructure and planned the buildings on the basis of countless system construction elements, which were dismantled after the ten mega concerts and given a new purpose in another event building.
For NUSSLI's constructions alone, 250 trucks with system construction materials, machines and cladding - mainly from Germany - rolled onto the grounds of the Riem trade fair in Munich. In just five weeks of assembly time, eight stands with a total of 42,000 seats were built, which corresponds to the capacity of a stately football stadium. The NUSSLI project team also created 18,000 m² of platform space for the 25,000 or so chairs around the catwalk area in Adele World, two side walls to the left and right of the main stage in XXL format, 108 m long and 17 m high. The 5 portals between the stands and the rear walls created a completely enclosed arena.
Up to 120 people were on site for NUSSLI during assembly - on some days in temperatures of up to 36 degrees and measured temperatures of over 80 degrees on the freshly laid black asphalt. "Implementing the extensive constructions was a challenge, especially in terms of logistics and the weather conditions during construction," says NUSSLI project manager Martin Langer, adding: "It was an experience for all of us to be involved in this concert project in a new dimension."
