Don’t miss the world premiere of 12 Game-Changing Stadiums in History, a short-form video presented by the Smithsonian’s Lemelson Center for the Study of Invention and Innovation and SportTechie. This film is part of the new Game Changers initiative and exhibit that is scheduled to open at the National Museum of American History in the fall of 2022. Our expert panel of historians, architects and sports business professionals will discuss why these 12 stadiums were selected for their innovations, and we’ll explore the future of stadium design and construction, especially as it pertains to health and safety issues related to COVID-19.
12 Game-Changing Stadiums is one of two videos that the Smithsonian and SportTechie have produced. The second, Grand Stands: Stadium Technology and the New Fan Experience, explores how design innovations and new interactive technologies elevate the fan experience and build community at three of the world’s newest stadium projects: SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles, Calif.; seven new stadiums and a major renovation in Doha, Qatar; and the Chase Center in San Francisco, Calif.
