The Madison Square Garden Company (MSG) have revealed plans to build the UK's biggest music arena in Stratford, east London. 

Called the MSG Sphere, the 21,500-capacity arena will sit on a 1.9-hectare (4.7-acre) site in Stratford which was purchased by MSG. The land, which is adjacent to both the Olympic Park and the Westfield shopping centre, was used a coach park during the 2012 London Olympics.

If the venue is constructed as planned, it will outstrip both the Manchester Arena (capacity: 21,000) and The O2 in London (20,000) to become the largest purpose-built arena in the UK.
