Shanghaiist received an anonymous tip earlier today on our Contribute page:
Don't know if anyone has confirmed whether this was an accident or not or generally what happened... but it appeared that Shanghai Stadium was on fire this morning.That's all the information we have so far, and we haven't been able to find anything about it in the local press. Was anyone in the neighbourhood at that time?



i was at the shanghai stadium around 11:00 AM today, everything seemed normal
That's a cloud of harmony if I've ever seen one
it was nothing-i ride through the stadium every day to work.i believe it has been a olympics preparation exercise as there is a fire fighters display at the exhibition hall there and there has been fire trucks there for the past 3/4 days-basically i think its just a fire drill-correct me if i am wrong though
