Multifunctional Complex EXPO 2027 Planned Next to National Stadium in Surcin – Pavilions, Exhibition Halls, Pools and Hotels and Other Features Envisaged on 113 ha

Next to the future National Stadium in Surcin, the multifunctional complex EXPO 2027 is to be built. This is said in the Draft Spatial Plan of the Special-Purpose Area of the National Football Stadium – Second Phase, which the Ministry of Construction, Transport and Infrastructure has put up for public inspection as the entity which commissioned the preparation of the plan.

It is reminded that, in June this year, Serbia applied Belgrade as a candidate for hosting the EXPO 2027 event with the topic of “Play for Humankind – Sports and Music for All”.

It is also said that, in June, the Government of Serbia adopted the decision by which the Project of the construction of facilities to the end of the realization of the international specialized show EXPO BELGRADE 2027, with the accompanying features, was pronounced a project of significance for the Republic of Serbia.

– The main goal is to define, in planning terms, the conditions for the realization of the EXPO 2027 complex as a multifunctional space meant for the organization of international events of the highest importance for the Republic of Serbia – the document says.

The area covered by the Spatial Plan encompasses the part of Surcinsko Polje to the east of the Belgrade Bypass Route and to the south of the location of the National Football Stadium.

EXPO 2027 will encompass three units:

1. an exhibition space with pavilions and accompanying features (multifunctional halls, congress halls, conference halls, traffic and infrastructure surfaces)
2. auxiliary accommodation capacities for the needs of the participants in the event
3. auxiliary commercial features for the participants and visitors of the event

On 830,000 m2 of the exhibition space, a multifunctional space for exhibitions and congresses of the highest state importance is planned. The main feature of spatial development is the central promenade which will connect the pavilions (exhibition halls) arranged in a row, leading to the big round square, where the main thematic pavilion and the national pavilion of Serbia will be located.

The construction of a hotel and an apartment hotel on 69,336 m2 is planned within the unit meant for accommodation capacities, whereas commercial features will spread on 229,105 m2.

The plan also envisages the connecting of the complex on several sides to various modes of transport – the existing Vojvodjanska Street, the Belgrade Bypass Route and the fast route New Belgrade-Surcin, the Nikola Tesla Airport through the planned BG Voz line (line 4), whereas the plan for the location for the setting up of floating structures on water terrain in the territory of Belgrade provides the possibility of connecting with the Belgrade center by water traffic.
