Virtus Arena, Sports venue in Bologna, Italy
Virtus Segafredo Arena is a modern sports venue in Bologna with seating for approximately 10,000 spectators located within the city's fairground district. The facility features large LED displays, multiple commercial spaces, and sightlines designed so that viewers from any seat have a clear view of the action.
The arena opened in 2019 and first hosted a basketball match between local team Virtus Bologna and Treviso Basket. Since then, it has served as the home venue for one of the region's most successful teams.
The arena's name changed with its sponsors: it was the Segafredo Arena until 2025, then became the SuperTennis Arena for the Davis Cup Finals held in Bologna from 18 to 23 November 2025, when Pavilion 36 was turned into a national teams village with training courts, gyms and restaurants. The record attendance came on 26 December 2025 for a EuroLeague game against Olympiakos.
The arena is located in the fairground district and is easily accessible by car or public transportation, with parking available and convenient entrances. It's best to arrive early for popular matches, as the venue can fill to capacity quickly.
The arena was first built in Padiglione 30, then dismantled and rebuilt in the larger, taller Padiglione 37, which allowed more seats. For the 2025 Davis Cup Finals it was renamed SuperTennis Arena, and Padiglione 36 became a village for national teams with training courts, gyms and restaurants.
