Building the World Cup goes behind-the-scenes of one of Brazil’s biggest engineering projects: the upgrading and creation of three state-of-the-art football stadiums capable of hosting international football matches at the highest level. This three part series follows the complex refurbishment of Rio de Janeiro’s iconic Maracano Stadium, the site of the country’s last World Cup defeat on home turf. The high-tech Corinthians Arena in Sao-Paulo, a project so cutting edge much of its advanced technology has not even been tested at the international level. There is also a visit to the vastly expensive project that is the Amazonia Arena in the heart of the Brazilian rainforest. All three stadiums differ from an architectural and engineering perspective but all three share the same issues - tight schedules, sky-rocketing budgets, unpredictable weather conditions and massive country-wide protests. With the 2014 World Cup fast approaching and the eyes of the world on Brazil, can the country deliver on time and on budget?
