Matsue Gymnasium, Sports arena in Matsue, Japan.
Matsue Gymnasium is a multipurpose sports facility in the city of Matsue with two separate arena spaces of different sizes. The larger arena accommodates major events while the smaller one is designed for specialized training and competition activities.
The current gymnasium was built from April 2014 to March 2016 and opened in April 2016, replacing a 1976 facility that closed in March 2016 and was demolished between April and December 2016. Planning began in March 2012, with detailed design completed in December 2013. The site is within Matsue Kita Park.
The gymnasium serves as the home venue for the Shimane Susanoo Magic basketball team, which plays in Japan's professional B.League. The court hosts regular matches that draw fans from across the region.
The gymnasium is a 10-minute walk from Matsue Station, or a 3-minute walk from the Kitakoen or Sogo Taiikukan-mae bus stops. Free parking is available at the former prefectural pool site (278 spaces) and the second lot west of the north tennis courts (85 spaces), plus 10 priority spaces and 174 bicycle spaces.
The 2025–2026 renovation cost 3.64 billion yen, funded largely by donations: four Bandai Namco Group companies gave 3 billion yen and Chugoku Electric Power 350 million yen through corporate hometown tax schemes. Renovation was chosen over rebuilding partly because the hall was finished only in 2016.
