THE world`s leading automobile brand Mercedes-Benz obtained the naming rights of Expo Culture Center for a 10-year period from 2011 when the Shanghai Expo ends. It will be the first such entertainment and sporting arena in China to have a naming rights partnership, and it is the only Mercedes-Benz named-venue outside Germany, where the auto company is headquartered.
The new Mercedes-Benz Arena will reinforce Shanghai as a culturally-rich city on the world map and create a new destination for arts and lifestyle on the international stage. It will become a complete lifestyle destination and a great platform for brands and marketers to communicate directly with their target customers. The 18,000-seat multi-purpose Mercedes-Benz Arena will light up the city as the region`s most technologically-advanced venue, featuring an array of fan amenities never seen before in China that will make the guest experience second-to-none. The state-of-the-art amenities will include 82 luxury suites, VIP clubs, food and beverage options, and top-notch acoustics, stage-systems and lighting.
The world-class venue will host leading music and cultural events, basketball games, other sporting events and lifestyle and family shows that will feature the very best Chinese, Asian and other renowned artists, teams and performers from around the world.
Aside from large-scale entertainment, the people of Shanghai will be able to make their trips to the arena on a daily basis as the venue features a six-screen movie cineplex, a public ice skating rink, a bowling alley, a live music club and 20,000 sq m of mixed use retail space.
The arena will also feature a 1,000-sq-m Mercedes-Benz retail center where visitors can learn more about the culture and heritage behind the automotive brand. For more information of its calendar of events, please log on www.mercedes-benzarena.com.
