This paper presents a review of the most relevant issues related to the structural and architectural design of large sport stadia, with the particular concern of wind loading aspects of these types of structures. The role and relevance of wind-tunnel tests of such facilities are highlighted. The paper summarises the wind engineering inputs in preparation for the 2010 FIFA World Cup tournament in South Africa; however it is also relevant to the forthcoming 2012 European FIFA evenly in Poland and the Ukraine
