Commercial Kitchen Cleaning for Sports Stadiums & Arenas

TR19 extraction cleaning for stadium kitchens, concession stands, and event catering operations across Cumbria and the Northwest. Event-day heavy use demands quarterly compliance. We manage the whole programme.

Stadium concession kitchens serving thousands during match day qualify as heavy use. Quarterly TR19 cleaning is mandatory and your insurer will ask for the certificate

Event-day catering operations can produce as much grease accumulation in a single busy match day as a restaurant kitchen produces in a week. TR19 classifies these as heavy-use operations requiring quarterly cleaning. Without a current BESCA VHR certificate, your insurance cover for a kitchen fire at a major event is at serious risk.

Why Sports Venues Choose Hy5

We hold the accreditations your insurer and venue safety team require for event catering compliance.

BESCA VHR

The Certificate Your Insurer Requires

BESCA VHR accreditation is the only standard recognised by UK commercial kitchen insurers. For stadium and arena kitchens operating at high volume during events, this certificate is essential for a valid insurance claim.

CHAS Elite

CHAS Elite: Approved for Managed Venue Contractor Vetting

Stadium and arena operators typically require contractors to hold CHAS Elite or equivalent accreditation before approving them for site work. We hold CHAS Elite, the highest tier available.

★★★★★

Event-Aware Scheduling

We schedule TR19 cleans around your fixtures list, not the other way around. Post-event cleaning, midweek slots, or pre-season programmes: we work around your calendar so operations are never disrupted.

What Makes Stadium Catering Compliance Different

The catering profile of a sports stadium or arena is unlike almost any other commercial kitchen environment. A single match or concert can see concession kitchens serving thousands of covers in under three hours, with fryers and grills running continuously at maximum capacity.

This creates grease accumulation at a rate that far exceeds what most annual TR19 cleaning programmes can safely manage. We assess each kitchen's match-day operating pattern, confirm the correct TR19 cleaning frequency (typically quarterly for heavy event catering), and schedule a programme that works around your fixtures list.

Our engineers understand the compressed timeframes that come with event catering environments and are experienced in completing compliant TR19 cleans efficiently without disrupting your next event.

Multiple concession points under one programme

Large stadiums often have dozens of separate concession stands, each with its own extraction system. We survey every unit and manage all certificates on a single rolling programme: one contractor, one invoice, full coverage.

  • Quarterly programme for heavy event-day catering
  • Scheduling built around your fixtures and events calendar

"I can actually hear the kitchen extract system working and the extract above the dishwash nearly pulled the sheet of blue roll out my hand when I was showing the management team how effective the clean was! The lads grafted the entire time, and the job has made a huge difference to the guys working in the kitchen. I am over the moon with the results!"

Frequently Asked Questions: Sports Venues

How often do stadium kitchens need TR19 cleaning?
Quarterly cleaning applies to event-day heavy-use kitchens. We assess each concession stand individually and confirm the correct TR19 frequency at the site survey, documenting our recommendation in writing.
Can you schedule around our fixtures list?
Yes. Your fixtures and events calendar is built into our programme from day one. We schedule post-event cleans, midweek slots, or pre-season programmes, whatever works best for your operation. We do not schedule work during active event periods.
We have many concession stands. Can you cover them all?
Yes. We survey every concession stand and manage all certificates on a single rolling programme. One contractor, one invoice, and full TR19 coverage across all your food service points.
Do you meet venue contractor requirements?
We hold CHAS Elite and SafeContractor, the accreditation levels required by most stadium and arena management companies for contractor approval. We can provide our certificates for your procurement or facilities team on request.
