Arena Sever, Indoor sports complex in Krasnoyarsk, Russia.
Arena Sever is a multipurpose sports complex featuring an Olympic-size ice rink measuring 60 by 30 meters (197 by 98 feet), basketball courts, and climbing facilities. The facility has 3,500 seats in the ice arena section, training areas, and a 15-meter (49-foot) climbing wall.
The facility opened in December 2011 and served as a key venue during the 2019 Winter Universiade for ice hockey and short track speed skating events. This international competition marked an important moment in the center's development.
The complex serves as home to Enisey Basketball Club, where locals gather to watch matches during the Russian league season. It has become a gathering place for sports enthusiasts in the city.
The facility has separate entrances for different sports areas, making navigation clear for visitors. It is useful to know which section you are visiting in advance, as the ice arena, basketball court, and climbing wall are in distinct spaces.
The arena's name came from a public naming competition, with the winning suggestion coming from someone outside the city. This reflects how the venue became known beyond the local community.
