The Sydney SuperDome (currently known as the Qudos Bank Arena for sponsorship reasons) is a multipurpose arena located in Sydney Olympic Park suburb of Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. It was completed in 1999 as part of the facilities for the 2000 Summer Olympics.

The A$190‑million facility was designed by COX Architecture & Devine deFlon Yaeger, and constructed by Abigroup and Obayashi Corporation[3] Bob Carr, premier of New South Wales, officially opened the stadium in November 1999.[3]

The development of the stadium was part of three subsites which also included a 3,400-space carpark which cost A$25 million,[3] and a plaza with external works, also costing $25 million.[3] The roof's masts reach 42 metres (138 ft) above ground level, and the stadium occupies a site of 20,000 m2 (220,000 sq ft; 4.9 acres).[3]

The venue is currently managed by AEG Ogden. For three consecutive years it was a finalist for the Billboard Touring Awards in the top venue category.[4]

The arena has a total capacity of 21,032 with a seating capacity of around 18,000 making the SuperDome the largest permanent indoor sports and entertainment venue in Australia.
