OWL Arena, Multi-purpose stadium in Halle, Germany.
OWL Arena is a multi-purpose stadium in Halle with a capacity of about 12,300 seats and modern lighting systems. The building features a retractable roof that allows for both indoor and outdoor events.
The stadium opened in 1993 and was originally called Gerry Weber Stadion. In 2020, a group of 13 sponsors took over the facility and renamed it.
The venue has long served as a center for sports and entertainment in the city. Today it hosts tennis tournaments, concerts, and theatrical performances, making it an important gathering space for different types of audiences.
The venue is located about 500 meters from Halle Gerry-Weber-Stadion railway station and is easily accessible by public transportation. There are approximately 3,700 parking spaces on site for visitors arriving by car.
The stadium's roof closes in approximately 88 seconds, making it weather-independent and allowing quick transitions between indoor and outdoor events. This technology is particularly valuable during tennis tournaments, as it protects matches from rain.
