Coliséum, Sports complex and Olympic swimming pool in Amiens, France.
Coliséum is a large sports complex in Amiens featuring an Olympic swimming pool, two ice rinks, and numerous other training facilities all under one roof. The venue also provides areas for weightlifting, martial arts training, and choreography.
The complex opened in 1996, replacing the older Pierre de Coubertin sports palace with modern facilities for aquatic and ice sports. This new venue gave the city a contemporary hub for competition and training.
The facility serves as a home base for local sports clubs, including the Amiens hockey team and the city's swimming association. Residents regularly use the venue for their training and competitions throughout the year.
The complex is easily accessible and open throughout the week with extended daytime hours for various activities. Visitors should check ahead to see when their desired activity is available, as operating times can vary by sport.
The facility includes two separate ice rinks, which is uncommon and allows for simultaneous ice hockey and figure skating activities. This dual setup makes it one of the few such complexes in the region with this level of ice sports capacity.
