Webuild Welcomes AC Milan Back to Perth as It Accelerates Major Australian Infrastructure Projects

(IN BRIEF) Webuild proudly supports AC Milan’s July 31 friendly against Perth Glory at HBF Park—echoing last year’s 56,000‑strong turnout at Optus Stadium—and reinforces its dedication to sport through the “  ” Olympic athlete campaign. As Australia accounts for 16 percent of Webuild’s backlog, the Group and Clough are delivering marquee projects like the largest hydropower plant, Melbourne’s North East Link, and the Western Sydney International Airport metro. Looking ahead to Brisbane 2032, Webuild aims to apply its experience from nine global stadiums to Australia’s forthcoming Olympic stadium tender, underscoring its role in building both infrastructure and community spirit.

(PRESS RELEASE) MILAN, 30-Jul-2025 — /EuropaWire/ — Webuild is thrilled to celebrate the return of AC Milan to Perth for a friendly against Perth Glory on July 31 at HBF Park, marking another milestone in our longstanding commitment to promoting Italian excellence abroad. Following last year’s spectacular AC Milan fixture at Optus Stadium—where over 56,000 fans gathered—our support continues to bring world‑class football to Australian shores.

Beyond stadium lighting, Webuild champions sport and community through our “  ” campaign, sharing the inspiring stories of Olympic stars such as Caterina Banti, Alice Bellandi, Zaynab Dosso, Antonella Palmisano, and Angela Carini. By underwriting cultural and athletic initiatives alongside building critical infrastructure, we foster a shared passion and empower youth around the globe.

In Australia, where 16 percent of our €XX billion order backlog resides as of June 30, 2025, Webuild—together with our local partner Clough—is driving transformative projects: from the nation’s largest hydropower scheme to Melbourne’s North East Link and the upcoming metro connection to Western Sydney International Airport, the largest public‑private partnership in New South Wales.

Looking to Brisbane 2032, we stand ready to bid on the new Olympic stadium tender and leverage our expertise from nine stadiums delivered across three continents—including Doha’s sustainable World Cup venue, Milan’s San Siro, Rome’s Stadio Olimpico, and Bucharest’s Arena Națională—to deliver landmark, sustainable venues that unite communities.

With AC Milan back in Perth and Australia’s role in global sport set to grow, Webuild reaffirms its dual mission: to construct vital infrastructure and to nurture cultural and sporting moments that inspire generations.
