UMMC Arena (Russian: УГМК Арена) is a multifunctional ice arena in Yekaterinburg. It is being built on the site of a demolished unfinished TV tower. The ellipsoidal ice arena will occupy an area of 5 hectares. The arena has a capacity of 12,180 spectators in sports mode and 14,999 spectators in concert mode.
Construction and design[edit]
Construction began in 2019. Completion was planned for 2023, for the Summer Universiade in Yekaterinburg and the 300th anniversary of the city, then postponed to December 2024.
The ice arena will have a complex internal organization and will be able to host sports competitions of the highest level – up to the European and world championships in at least 11 sports, as well as congress events and concerts. The ice arena will become the home of the Avtomobilist Ice Hockey Club. The arena will accommodate two full—size venues, one can host a concert, the other can train. The transformation of the arena from one sport to another or the arrangement of a concert venue will take from 6 to 18 hours
