Open 24 hours a day, serving 18,000 meals daily, the village dining hall can seat up to 2000 people at one time.  Set up as a self-serve buffet, it will cater for a variety of requirements including dietary, medical, recovery, nutritional, cultural and religious.

There will be various cuisines available including Asian, Indian, African & Western, as well as Halal, vegetarian & vegan options. Whether you want a soup, salad, pasta, pizza, curry, stir fry or meat & veg dish…everything is covered.

Theres even a dessert bar with a choice of 8 cakes & desserts daily.  

Outside of the dining hall, athletes will also find a casual dining area, several barista and drink stations, a smoothie station and even ice creams.
