Weststadthalle, Multipurpose hall in Bensheim (Hesse)

Weststadthalle is a large multi-purpose hall in Bensheim designed to host a wide variety of events from concerts to sports matches and community markets. Inside, movable seating sections allow the space to be reconfigured for different types of gatherings.

Weststadthalle was constructed in 1988 and opened to the public in 1989, becoming Bensheim's new gathering space. Since then, it has grown to serve as the region's largest event venue, hosting major handball championships and concerts.

Weststadthalle serves as a gathering place for Bensheim residents, hosting concerts, sports matches, and community celebrations. The venue reflects how people in the town spend time together and connect through shared events.

Weststadthalle has a total of 1,990 fixed seats: 1,332 on the main and side stands and 658 on three retractable stands. For music events the hall can be seated for about 3,000, and 3,500 spectators attended the 1991 German handball championship final. The city of Bensheim owns and operates the hall.

At the 1991 final of the German handball championship, the SG Leutershausen versus SG Wallau/Massenheim match, the hall held 3,500 spectators, well above its 1,990 fixed seats. The HSG Bensheim/Auerbach women's team, promoted to the Bundesliga in 2012/2013, plays its home games here. The Rhein-Neckar Löwen have also played a DHB-Pokal match and a friendly in the hall.
