The Metallist City Sports and Entertainment Centre will be located close to Metallist Stadium, that is to say in the very centre of Kharkiv on the corner of Plekhanovskaya Street and Derzhavinskaya Street. The site has a unique location, being situated at the intersection of two metro lines.
The mixed-use complex will accommodate the largest hypermarket in Kharkiv, a children’s centre, sports stores, supermarkets, boutiques of leading brands, a multi-screen movie-theatre, a bowling club, public catering facilities, and a parking lot of high capacity.
The development of the complex (total area of more than 147,844 sq. m on over 5 hectares) will be completed by 2011.
The complex commissioning is timed to coincide with Euro 2012. However, after the end of the continental football championships, it will serve to popularize a healthy life-style among the citizens of Kharkiv.
