Our Scope
Marshall Day Acoustics designed the room acoustics of the arena, concourse and back-of-house areas. We also designed the arena's sound insulation of the arena for music concerts, and the building services noise/vibration control.
Marshall Day Entertech designed the in-house sound system to be used for PA announcements and music reproduction, as well as having the capability to integrate with touring PA systems to provide additional coverage for concerts. The sound system is also a combined PA/EWIS system, utilising end-of-line monitoring linked to the BMS system.
The project transformed Margaret Court Arena into a state-of-the-art multi-purpose indoor venue with a fully retractable roof. As well as becoming Melbourne Park's third tennis venue with a retractable roof, the venue will also play host to basketball, netball and music concerts all year round.
