About | Austadiums

The Australian Stadiums Website (‘Austadiums.com’ – pronounced: aus-stadiums) was first launched in 1999 as the Victorian Stadiums Website, the site originally had information on about 10 major Victorian Stadiums. In 2000, the site expanded to cover the entire nation and was renamed the 'Australian Stadiums' website. During the same year, the www.austadiums.com domain name was acquired. Later that year, the site expanded even further, and included New Zealand Stadiums. Popularity of the site grew during 2000, especially when the site was featured in a number of media outlets, including an article in the Herald Sun, an OzEmail publication and provided stadium content for the official British & Irish Lions Rugby tour of Australia website (www.lionstour.com).

The Australian Stadiums site was re-launched in March 2002 with a brand new look and a range of new features. The site entered a new era in October 2002 when it was again re-launched, this time with a truly professional look and a database-driven back-end along with the addition of many more new features. A new dimension was brought to the site with the introduction of the events section which listed all major sporting events in Australia, this has since been expanded to become 'Austadiums Sport'. The site continues to expand with new features and content, and as a result the number of visitors to the site continues to grow.

The Australian Stadiums website was designed and is run and owned by CV Web Design: www.cvwebdesign.com
