New Multipurpose Sports Facility Planned for Mediterranean Games and Urban Redevelopment in Southern Italy

The municipal administration led by mayor Rinaldo Melucci has definitively identified the city area in which to build a structure where rugby, baseball and American football can be played. The work, to be carried out also with a view to the Mediterranean Games, will cost 3 and a half million euros

As part of the investments planned in view of the XX Edition of the Mediterranean Games 2026 and aimed at the redevelopment of some urban areas, also through environmentalisation interventions, there is an important provision adopted by the Administration led by Mayor Rinaldo Melucci.

Following a specific resolution, the municipal council, on the proposal of the mayor who has responsibility for urban planning, major works and Mediterranean games, laid the foundations for the construction of a multipurpose outdoor facility suitable for playing rugby matches, Baseball and American Football. The structure will be built in the “Paolo VI” district, in the area between Corso Bruno Buozzi and Via Alcide De Gasperi, a choice inspired not only by assessments relating to the urban destination of the lot, compliant with the project forecasts, but also to be in line with the achievement of the social inclusion objectives set by the Department for Sport of the Presidency of the Council of Ministers.

Leveraging the funding allocated by the PNRR and with a view to the recovery of urban areas through the creation and adaptation of sports infrastructures, the municipal administration has definitively identified for the multipurpose facility an area bordering a plot of land, located in the corner between via del Lavoro and viale del Turismo, where the construction of the “Paolo VI neighborhood gym” is planned for the 2026 Mediterranean Games.

Initially planned in another city district, which later turned out to be incompatible with the implementation times of the construction, the work will have a total financed cost of €3,500,000.00 and should be completed by March 2026.

“With the definitive identification of the area for this new structure – declared Mayor Melucci – we are decisively continuing to strengthen sports and leisure services by equipping our urban area with a facility which, available to anyone, will contribute to achieve the objectives of social inclusion”.
