Joynext-Arena, Ice sports arena in Dresden, Germany

The Joynext-Arena is a multi-purpose hall in Dresden whose ground-floor ice arena, 60 by 30 metres, seats 4,552 spectators on two tiers. A training ice rink lies crosswise to it, a three-court ball hall occupies the upper floor above that rink, and a 333-metre outdoor speed-skating track completes the complex. The building was constructed by Hentschke Bau of Bautzen.

The original ice hall, built in 1969 on Pieschener Allee, was badly damaged in the 2002 Elbe flood and also blocked drainage in the Ostragehege flood channel. Dresden therefore built a replacement outside the channel using flood-relief funds, state sports funding and city money; Hentschke Bau of Bautzen constructed it from May 2005 to August 2007 for about 29.7 million euros. The first game was played on 15 August 2007, and the complex was officially opened from 31 August to 2 September 2007.

The arena functions as the home venue for the Dresdner Eislöwen ice hockey team and draws crowds for regional and international competitions. Visitors can experience the local passion for ice hockey at this central gathering place in the city.

The complex sits on Pieschener Allee outside the Elbe flood channel, with the arena on the ground floor, the training rink set crosswise to it, the three-court ball hall above, and the 333-metre outdoor speed-skating oval reached through a tunnel. In the skating season, public skating is offered daily on almost 5,000 m² of ice, and the outdoor oval is open to the public as well. Ten kiosks and the "Auszeit" restaurant with sports bar are inside.

The first match in the new ice arena was played on 15 August 2007 during the Four-Points-Cup; Eisbären Berlin and HC Energie Karlovy Vary drew 3:3, and national forward Florian Busch scored the arena's first goal. The complex was officially opened from 31 August to 2 September 2007.
