The centre of the United World Games is the so called Wörthersee stadium, a state-of-the-art sports arena that was built for the European Soccer Championships 2008, that took place in Austria and Switzerland. The stadium has a capacity of 32,000 and together with the surrounding training fields, the built-in sports hall, which is one of the biggest in all of Austria, and the classy VIP rooms, it forms the “Sportpark Klagenfurt”, the heart of the Games.
Along with the EURO 2008 Arena as a centre, a number of other sports venues in Klagenfurt and surroundings are used for the various tournaments as well.
