Ballsporthalle Frankfurt am Main

Ballsporthalle Frankfurt am Main, hall in Frankfurt, Germany

Ballsporthalle Frankfurt am Main is a large indoor arena in western Frankfurt with high ceilings and spacious interior. The functional building features modern sports flooring and lighting designed to accommodate various sports including basketball, volleyball, and handball.

The hall was completed in 1988 and was to be called Ballsporthalle Höchst, a name dropped because the site lies in Unterliederbach, not Höchst. It has held 5,002 spectators since opening and has been the home arena of the Fraport Skyliners basketball club since 1999. It was named Fraport Arena from 2011 to 2021, then took the sponsor name Süwag Energie Arena on 1 January 2023.

The hall's name history is visible in its sponsors: it opened in 1988 as Ballsporthalle Frankfurt, became Fraport Arena in 2011 when Frankfurt Airport's operator held the naming rights, and took the name Süwag Energie Arena on 1 January 2023. The Frankfurt Cup, its annual indoor football tournament, fields six regional teams including Eintracht Frankfurt and Kickers Offenbach.

The hall stands in Unterliederbach, with the Silostraße running along its south side and the Silobad grounds to the east; the Jahrhunderthalle is close by. The site was originally meant to be called Ballsporthalle Höchst, but that name was dropped because the building lies in Unterliederbach, not Höchst.

The hall's east and west facades follow the cross-section of an American football, a shape chosen when it opened in 1988. Its roof holds a photovoltaic system of 800 modules producing about 180,000 kWh a year, enough for roughly 60 households; in 2021 the module count was raised by 55%.
