Lanxess Arena in Cologne

The Lanxess Arena in Cologne is a modern multifunctional complex that combines sporting and cultural events in one of the largest venues in Germany. Opened in 1998 and designed by architect Peter Böhm, the arena can accommodate up to 20,000 spectators for concerts, 19,400 for handball matches and 18,700 for ice hockey matches.

Since its renaming in 2008, the Lanxess Arena has become home to the Kölner Haie hockey club and has hosted major international sporting events, including the Ice Hockey and Handball World Championships. It also hosts eSports competitions and world-class concerts.

The arena has a unique architectural feature - the Opladener Straße through tunnel and the high arch, which serves as a suspended roof frame. This design not only gives the building a recognizable appearance, but also provides flexibility in transforming the space for various events.
