Boris Alexandrov Sport Palace

Boris Alexandrov Sport Palace, Sports palace in Oskemen, Kazakhstan

Boris Alexandrov Sport Palace is a modern indoor arena with 4,400 seats serving as the primary venue for ice hockey and sports events in eastern Kazakhstan. The facility includes a main competition area and training grounds for professional teams.

Built between 1964 and 1968, the palace was the first stadium in Kazakhstan to use truss construction and the first indoor ice hockey arena in the Soviet Union with a training rink alongside the main one. The main arena initially held 5,200 spectators. In 2001 Kazzinc rebuilt it for three million dollars, cutting capacity to 4,400, and in 2010 it was renamed after Boris Alexandrov.

The venue serves as the home of the Kazzinc-Torpedo hockey team, where fans gather to watch local players compete at professional levels. This place has become a center for the sport in the city, reflecting the community's passion for ice hockey.

The arena stands at 2 Abai Avenue in Oskemen. Public transport and taxis serve the surrounding streets, and the city centre is within walking distance. The main entrance faces the hockey monument and the curved LED screen added outside the building.

The current facade dates from a winter 2011–2012 replacement that left the building itself unmodernised; its shape is meant to suggest a goalie mask. A hockey player monument and a large curved LED screen were added beside the arena at the same time.
