Before you can see the highlights of SAP Gardens for yourself during the Grand Opening, we are always introducing you to new places. Today: The "Elephant Gate" and the features of the roof.
From the "Elephant Gate" to the main playing area
A previously unseen place in the SAP Garden is the underground delivery zone, which leads to the so-called "Elephant Gate". The delivery zone offers space for up to three articulated lorries or buses. It will also be used to park the TV stations' OB vans and connect them to the control centre.
The delivery zone leads directly to the "elephant gate", which was given its name due to its size. The largest gate in the SAP Garden even allows lorries to pass through. The so-called "elephant gate" measures around 5.50 metres in width and has a clear height of at least 4.20 metres. It is used to allow lorries to enter the ice rink in order to bring equipment into the arena for conversion work at third-party events.
