Olympic Games 2008
World's biggest restaurant at the Olympic Games 2008 in Beijing
At the Olympic Games in Athens 2004, RÖDER Zelt- und Veranstaltungsservice GmbH had already provided more than 500 tents totalling well over 30,000 m² of roofed area.
RÖDER delivered a total of 40,000 m² of tents to Beijing. The material for the big tents comes from the factory in Büdingen, the small tents from the branch in Shanghai. The biggest tent ensemble (100 x 185 m) with a capacity of approximately 16,000 seats will serve as a restaurant for the athletes and officials in the Olympic Village. This world's biggest restaurant covering a ground area of 18,500 m² has already been inaugurated this April. All the tent structures were also used for the Paralympic Games that were taking place from 6-17 September 2008.
