At the Olympic Games, STADIUMS are real eye-catchers. But what do we know about these giant structures? Emblematic of the Olympic Games, STADIUMS also represent a challenge for the host city. With a long history, they refer to the past while turning to the future. With this new programme, The Olympic Museum is exploring the adventure of these buildings whose impact is measured beyond the 16 days of competition.
« STADIUMS past and future »
This is a programme for the general public thanks to its participative and dynamic approach. It features a temporary exhibition, events, a magazine, educational activities and a Serious Game. This programme is an illustration of humankind’s creativity through the various editions of the Games. It is about looking at stadiums as a whole, and not only architecturally. Building a stadium is about building the future – modifying a city’s urban landscape and leaving a legacy!
« Stadium by Stadium » : temporary exhibition
The exhibition addresses stadiums through the prism of time: from the ancient stadium in Olympia to the stadiums of the various editions of the modern Games, follow the adventure of these theatres of sport. The visitor takes part in the various stages of construction. Stadiums integrate into and enhance a city. How do they fit into the daily life of today and tomorrow? An active way of speaking about sustainable development and Olympic legacy.
