Fraport issues RFP for a sports/multi-functional hall at Frankfurt Airport

Fraport is to issue a request for proposals (RFP) to assess market interest in the construction of a sports/multi-functional hall on a vacant plot of land at Frankfurt Airport. The project is part of a larger urban development initiative. The plot in question is centrally located behind The Squaire parking garage, and comprises approximately 30,000 m².

The RFP’s aim is to identify potential investors and operators who would plan, build and run the new facility – in coordination with Fraport and the City of Frankfurt, as well as government agencies, industry associations and other businesses. The goal is to create a versatile venue suitable for hosting top-class domestic and international sports competitions, as well as concerts and cultural events. 

Felix Kreutel, Head of Real Estate Management at Fraport, explains: “We initially want to establish whether there is interest amongst potential market players in developing, constructing and operating a sports and multi-functional hall. Such a venue would add another interesting element to our portfolio of offerings here at Frankfurt Airport.”
