A 23,000-seat football stadium planned for Hobart’s waterfront is causing a major headache for the Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra (TSO), the number one most recorded, broadcast and streamed orchestra in Australia.
While the TSO’s musicians, staff and Board are united in support of Tasmania’s plans for a new stadium – intended to be the home ground for the newly established AFL and AFLW Tasmania Devils as well as hosting touring rock concerts and other events – the Orchestra is strongly opposed to the venue’s planned location.
