Patinoire Bocquaine

Patinoire Bocquaine, Municipal ice rink in Reims, France.

The Patinoire Bocquaine was Reims's municipal ice rink, opened in 1968 on the chaussée Bocquaine beside the Auguste-Delaune stadium. It shared a building with the Nautilud swimming pool and had a 60-metre by 30-metre ice sheet with seating for 1,000 spectators. Closed in 2013 over roof-frame problems, it was demolished from 1 September 2014 and replaced by a car park.

Inaugurated in 1968 on the chaussée Bocquaine, the rink shared its building with the Nautilud pool. Its 60-by-30-metre ice sheet and 1,000 seats hosted French figure skating, ice dance and short-track championships. Closed in 2013 over roof-frame problems, it was voted for demolition in June 2014, work starting 1 September, and replaced by a car park.

The rink hosted the French Figure Skating Championships in 1975, 1980 and 1991, and the French Short Track Speed Skating Championships in 2003, 2006 and 2009. Its resident clubs were Reims Champagne Hockey, successor in 2002 to the Hockey Club de Reims, and the Club de Patinage Artistique de Reims, where Laurent Depouilly coached from 1986 to 1992.

The rink stood on the chaussée Bocquaine, on the left bank of the Vesle beside the stade Auguste-Delaune, in a building shared with the Piscine Nautilud. It had 1,000 seated places, and the ice was 60 m long by 30 m wide. It closed in 2013 because of problems with its roof structure and was demolished from 1 September 2014; a car park replaced it.

The venue hosted major concerts from international artists like Genesis, Leonard Cohen, and Van Halen during the 1970s and 1980s. This made it a significant live music destination beyond its role as a skating facility.
