 Europe ablaze with Football Fever!

Europe ablaze with Football Fever!

Switzerland and Austria as host countries are welcoming football crazy fans from all over the world for three weeks. The huge sporting event is expecting all of 550 000 stadium visitors and up to 2 million participants of public viewing in fan areas as well as around 10 billion viewers at home on the TV sets.

Basel, which is the main competition location in Switzerland, does not only want to convince by staging an unforgettable football fest, exciting games and showing off great emotions, but is also promoting the city with the motto ‘Basel. More than 90 minutes’ as a tri-national living environment with international flair.

Following suit, the ZENDOME will also become a much frequented site of the city in the tri-state area right next to the St. Jakob-Park-Stadium. The location marketing for Basel is using the ‘Space for Ideas’ in cooperation with several other project partners to promote the canton Basel-City in the “BASEL. BEST PLACE TO…” pavilion. The geodesic dome will be used as an eye-catcher to present the region of Basel internationally in the middle of the city on the fan boulevard. Visitors will have the opportunity to get information on the attractive business and culture region, its education and leisure possibilities as well as talking to qualified people on location.

Opened for the festivity on 6th June by Barbara Schneider, who is a member of the governing council, you will find the pavilion open until 29th June from 12 to 7 pm on the Welfare Terrace on the Small Basel side of the middle bridge.

ZENDOME is looking forward to three exciting weeks with the UEFA EURO 2008 until the final whistle in the Ernst Happel Stadium in Vienna will crown the new European Champion.
