Clever Stadium Stories

Write for us

We welcome pitches that help readers notice how stadiums are designed, used and remembered. A strong contribution has one clear question, explains why it matters and gives readers a grounded way to understand the subject.

What to pitch

We consider proposals about stadium layout, materials, entrances, circulation, viewing, signs, venue history and other features of the built sporting environment. We are interested in clear explanations, thoughtful comparisons and focused essays that make a specific subject easier to see.

What makes a good proposal

Tell us the proposed angle, the main point you want to make, the kind of information the piece would rely on and why it suits Clever Stadium Stories. Keep the scope manageable, define specialist language and avoid claims that depend on access, testing or expertise you do not have. Do not send confidential material.

How to send it

Send your proposal through the Contact page and choose the editorial question option. A pitch is a proposal, not a promise of publication; please wait for a response before sending a full draft.

Our point of view

A venue tells its story in how it works

We look at stadiums as designed places: spaces that organise movement, attention and shared experience.
