Shanghai Indoor Stadium, Indoor stadium in Xuhui District, Shanghai, China
The Shanghai Indoor Stadium is a covered multi-use hall in the Xuhui district, built to host sports events, concerts, and large gatherings. It has two levels and can adjust its seating layout depending on the type of event.
The hall was built in the 1970s and opened in 1976, during a period when Shanghai was investing in large public facilities. It stands as one of the older surviving large event venues still in active use in the city.
The venue serves as a gathering place where people come to watch sports competitions, concerts, and cultural performances. It plays an active role in the city's entertainment life.
The hall is located on Caoxi Road North and is served by several metro lines with a stop right at the venue. It is worth checking the event schedule in advance, as the layout and access points can change depending on what is on.
During renovations in the late 1990s and early 2000s, the hall received major technical upgrades while keeping its original structural frame untouched. This means the building carries a 1970s exterior with a more modern interior setup, which is visible when you move between the older outer corridors and the updated inner spaces.
