Stadiums With Stunning Glass Roofs That Let Nature Be Part of the Game
19. Aviva Stadium – Dublin, Ireland
The Aviva Stadium’s unique, undulating roof is made of clear polycarbonate glass, designed not just for aesthetics, but to protect nearby neighborhoods from excessive noise and shadows. It curves like a ripple, adapting to the sloping cityscape around it while allowing maximum sunlight to reach the pitch. The roof gives the stadium a luminous glow during daytime matches and turns it into a glowing shell at night. With its commitment to sustainability and neighborhood harmony, Aviva is a masterclass in using glass to balance community, design, and spectacle.
