About Arena Fonte Nova
Arena Fonte Nova is a stadium for football in Salvador, Bahia, Brazil, and its maximum capacity is 47,902. It replaced the old Estádio Fonte Nova, and Esporte Clube Bahia is its primary tenant. President Dilma Rousseff inaugurated it on April 5, 2013, and the first match followed on April 7, 2013: Vitória beat rival Bahia 5–1 in a Campeonato Baiano match. It was designed for concerts, entertainment and business events as well as football.
Part of the Estádio Fonte Nova collapsed, killing seven people and injuring forty more people. Afterward, Jaques Wagner, the governor of Bahia, announced that it was to be torn down and a new stadium built. Architects from Brunswick, Germany, were selected after a bidding process; the group had remade Hanover's old stadium as a modern venue for the 2006 FIFA World Cup. Demolition took place in August 2010, and some of the old concrete was reused in the new stadium.
The new stadium keeps the horseshoe shape of the original, with an opening toward the Dique do Tororó. Its roof covers every seat and drew on the AWD-Arena in Hanover, Germany, as inspiration. The roof is a lightweight metal structure using a ray and ring system, with a PTFE membrane over it and external pillars holding it up. Matches at both the 2013 FIFA Confederations Cup and 2014 FIFA World Cup were played there, and it was a venue for football at the 2016 Summer Olympics.

- Ring of slim pillars
- A ring of slim external pillars holds up the roof. Print friendly adapts the thinnest of them to your print scale; Full detail keeps them, best on a larger print with 0.12 to 0.16 mm layers.
- Open roof ring
- The roof is a ring of radial ribs around an open center, so the seating bowl shows through. A bigger print keeps those ribs crisp.
- One piece with the ground
- Arena Fonte Nova is joined to the ground in the exported file, and the four-side check found no floating parts, so nothing needs gluing.
- Pick the detail for your nozzle
- In the Buildings settings, set Landmark detail to Print friendly to adapt thin parts and small details to the print scale. Full detail keeps every modeled feature, for larger prints or a finer nozzle.
- Colors
- Buildings, roads, water and ground arrive as separate filament slots in the 3MF. Arena Fonte Nova takes the building color.
- File format
- You get a 3MF for Bambu Studio, OrcaSlicer or PrusaSlicer. Any of them can save it as STL if you need one.
