Mardyke Arena UCC

We're proud to be a trusted partner since 2000

UCC Mardyke Arena is Europe's largest university fitness facility and globally renowned as being a world class facility. Home to over 20,000 students plus university staff in addition to public members. The Mardyke Arena has a record of being the highest usage gymnasium facility in Europe.

Our team got involved from the start of invitation to tender and worked on the layout and placement of machines to create some special magic that was unique, refreshing, and different. The installation would be over 300 units of equipment and each zone had to provide a safe yet functional space in which the user could workout with ease.

This was quite the challenge! Even from a logistics viewpoint this was an installation that had to be managed with precision. The result is outstanding and touched on all the points noted and raised by the Mardyke Arena. We are proud to be associated and trusted with this prestigious site since their opening in 2000. The Mardyke Arena has gone from strength to strength over these last years. Progressive and Disruptive – always seeking a challenge and to be challenged. A truly impressive site and an absolute must see.
