The hall was also equipped with air conditioning and a video cube was installed under the roof . The grandstands have also been rebuilt so that the spectators have a good view from all seats. 150 special seats for disabled spectators have been created in the stands. The lower grandstand area can be moved for various cultural events such as concerts or shows. The hall floor was raised by 60 centimeters.
