In a radical upgrade trajectory enters the Stadium of Peace and Friendshipwith the aim of turning into a state -of -the -art European – and not only – standards.
The chairman of the chef, Christina Tsiligirispeaking to ARA Sportsrevealed the details of the ongoing projects, stressing that the Faliro Stadium will reach the NBA level.
With extensive interventions in lighting, air conditioning and infrastructure, but also with plans for total roof renovation, the chef aspires to leave behind time and become a one stadium-model for the following decades.
In detail her statements:
On Olympiacos’ negotiations with the government for the SEF: “We are watching developments. It is fair and must be done. It is perfectly reasonable. The only sports center of the 17 supervisors from the GSC that has no hostels is the chef. There was no prediction from the beginning. There was no problem with the building factor. Are problems that are resolved. There is no issue with a swimming pool. Has expired from last week.
It is a matter of days to announce the region the programming for its funding. Such a scene should be seen for the central arena and the places to be given to the Olympic Games. It is a demanding need and we must not compare two stadiums at quantitatively. The OAKA is compared to the chef. It is perfectly reasonable for what is being discussed, but the government will expire if the issue has not already expired.
It is not just the capacity that will be 17,000 seats. From what I know, Angelopoulos will build a stadium worthy of the team’s history. It will be a truly beautiful stadium, modern, European. Not 2025, but 2055! The stadiums must be ahead of their years. Like the SEF when it was made in the 80s. I have confidence in the work they will do. It will be NBA specification stadium. There are sound requirements that need to be implemented. It is a stadium that has not been the slightest renovation since 1980. At the OAKA in 2004 there were changes. Only walls were painted in the chef”
For the tasks in the SEF: “It’s not only the job we do as an administration, but the result. I would like to place things about how they have been done. We have heard a lot, they have been written and I had said that I want to talk when the championship is over. It’s a big bet. The competition held last year has been completed at the contract level, but the installation of the air conditioning unit will be completed in September. What you lived was not by placing the new air conditioning unit. What did we do in the interim and having the freedom of all the amounts?
This year we spent more than 300,000 euros with half a million on maintenance, restoration and repair of the second unit of repair and work that had not been done in 2004. It was a job that lasted in February, it was silent, with the help of the first employees. It was impossible to test it in real conditions and that is why there is the support of the unit rental. We managed to have this result. For women’s Eurobasket and especially for Saturday expected sold out I will be happy to come to all the races. They deserve support, our team needs it.
What we wanted to do is the stage to be worthy of expectations. We worked hard all year to be able to deal with the heat that has caught us the last two races and especially in the latter because of the postponements. The second important task was to upgrade the lighting. You see that in the central arena the lights open and close without waiting for a quarter to fully heat the lamps. LED lights have been refreshed to have the result that must be all over Europe.
With the roof I will not lie to you, the problem has not been resolved. Now that it’s summer months, when we have to take advantage of the months of drought, we will use the two months to do partly rehabilitation. Why not whole? Because with the studies we have done from the Technical Chamber, the total repair of the damage caused by December 2024 exceeds EUR 1.5 million. We have addressed the relevant requests for a holistic treatment. We will not sit with arms crossed. With the money we have we will do some restorations“
