SINGAPORE: Singapore´s state-of-the-art new National Stadium will host international football and an Asia-Pacific Super rugby team after it opens as part of the billion-dollar Sports Hub project in June, officials said Thursday.
The 55,000-seat stadium, with a domed, retractable roof and innovative cooling system,
will get off to a low-key start with an international rugby 10s tournament from June 21-22.
The venue, which lies alongside an existing 13,000-capacity indoor stadium plus a new aquatics centre, sports hall and water sports facility, will also host a Singapore v Malaysia football friendly on August 8. And the stadium will be a venue for the group stages of football´s AFF Suzuki Cup as Singapore defend their Southeast Asian title in November and December.
Officials also announced a number of music attractions, including America´s Taylor Swift and Taiwanese singer Jay Chou, as they unveiled a varied but limited line-up for the site´s opening months.
They said the list of events was a work in progress, with negotiations continuing in a number of areas including the Sevens World Series, Super rugby and football´s youth World Cup.

I hope Taylor plays the 55k stadium, not the indoor one.

"will get off to a low-key start with an international rugby 10s tournament from
June 21-22." Maybe, this is the problem?
