Presentation of the project for the new Piscina Sempione
Date of the event:
On 11 November 2026 the company Supera, part of the Spanish group Sidecu, presents to the City of Turin the Technical and Economic Feasibility Project for the construction of the new Piscina Sempione, a sports complex worth over 20 million euros in the municipal area of via Gottardo, where the old swimming facility once stood. The stated goal is to start construction by summer 2027. [1][2]
The project
The new facility, designed as a public-private partnership on a municipal area of about 23,000 square metres, will include indoor and outdoor pools, fitness and wellness areas, multi-purpose courts and an underground car park. The proposal also provides for an agreement with the City of Turin to guarantee reduced-rate access to sports activities, with courses and initiatives aimed in particular at families and the elderly. [1][2]
Administrative process
Supera's proposal had first been submitted in September 2025. The City's subsequent public call, opened in November 2025, closed in January 2026 with a single bid, submitted by the same company as a project financing proposal. After the submission of the Technical and Economic Feasibility Project, the procedure calls for a technical and administrative review of the documents and, under legislative decree 38/2021, the convening of a decision-making conference of services for final approval, to be followed by the tender for the works.

Statements
Mayor Stefano Lo Russo described the proposal as "an example of how, through public-private partnership actions, positive synergies can be created to invest in our territory, creating new opportunities for citizens and making use of disused areas in need of regeneration." The councillor for Sport, Domenico Carretta, said the project represented "a valuable opportunity to definitively overcome the state of disrepair and neglect that has long affected the area." [1]
