This is how Retractable Roofs are Transforming Sports Venues Worldwide Modern stadiums use retractable roofs to manage weather, like Wimbledon’s Centre Court, where a fabric roof quickly closes to prevent rain delays. Designs have evolved from ancient structures to advanced systems like the Mercedes-Benz Stadium's 10-minute spiral roof.
