Sanya to create eSports theme park

Sanya Qingniancheng and Yike Sports have announced that they will work together to create an International eSports Theme Park in Sanya, Hainan province.

In July, the government of Haihan announced a plan to accelerate the creation of an international eSports center, announcing 6 favorable eSports policies, including support in funding, talent development, taxes, visa-free entry, sports events approval process and sports broadcasting.

Showered with beneficial policies, Sanya Qingniancheng will explore new possibilities in landing eSports events, incubating eSports-related companies, producing eSports shows and eSports content, developing eSports talent and integrating eSports with tourism resources, eventually creating a center for eSports and entertainment activities.

Sanya Qingniancheng is located in Jiyang District, Sanya city, Hainan province. The investment in the Qingniancheng project is planned to be RMB 4.78 billion. The first phase of the project has already been completed, with 4,690 apartments available for talent to live in which are capable of accommodating 15,000 people.
