Description
Available in:
Luzhniki Palace of Sports, formerly the Palace of Sports of the Central Lenin Stadium, was a sports arena in Moscow, Russia, a part of the Luzhniki Olympic Complex. Built in 1956, it originally had a spectator capacity of 13,700. It was rebuilt in 2002, and eventually demolished in 2023, with plans to construct a replacement arena on the site.
The arena hosted the world and European championships in ice hockey, gymnastics, volleyball, basketball, boxing, skateboarding and other sports. It hosted several games during the 1972 Summit Series tournament between the Soviet Union and Canada and was a venue for gymnastics and judo events at the 1980 Summer Olympics.
It was primarily used for ice hockey as the home arena for HC Dynamo Moscow until the year 2000, when the club moved to Luzhniki Small Sports Arena. In 2002, the arena underwent major reconstruction and the seating capacity was lowered to 11,500. The arena subsequently hosted the 2005 World Figure Skating Championships. Demolition of the arena began in December 2023, which surprised some residents who did not expect that the reconstruction of the building meant its complete demolition.
