Current work on the Rod Laver Arena Refurbishment includes a new eastern-facing primary entrance, which also provides food and beverage facilities, an expanded public concourse space, accessible entrances to the seating bowl and significant back-of-house improvements, including upgrading of player and artist facilities to ensure that Rod Laver Arena continues to host the best events in Australia across all modes of operation.

A key challenge was to implement all refurbishment works while the venue remained fully operational, including through four Australian Open tennis tournaments during the construction period.
