Boråshallen, Indoor sports arena in Borås, Sweden.
Boråshallen is a multi-purpose sports arena in Borås with four separate halls designed for various indoor events. The two main halls, A and B, serve as primary venues and can accommodate approximately 3000 spectators combined.
This arena was completed in 1957 as part of efforts to establish a central sports facility for the city. Since then it has grown into an important venue hosting local and regional sporting events.
The venue regularly hosts home games for Borås Basket, a team competing in Sweden's top professional basketball league, where the crowd gathers to support their players. It serves as a gathering place for sports enthusiasts in the region and remains central to local sporting culture.
The site is easy to locate and can host multiple sporting events happening at the same time across its different spaces. Visitors should check which event is scheduled on their day to know which hall to visit.
The Beatles performed here on October 28, 1963, drawing around 2500 people to witness their show. This performance remains an important part of the city's music history and is often overlooked when thinking of this place only as a basketball venue.
