history
When Sapporo was awarded the contract for the 1972 Winter Olympics on April 26, 1966 , there was still no suitable hall in the city. Construction began in March 1968 and was completed in December 1970, with the Japanese state bearing the total construction cost of 1.952 billion yen . The Makomanai indoor stadium was used for the first time as part of the International Winter Sports Week in February 1971. During the 1972 Winter Games, most of the ice hockey games , the decisions of the figure skating competitions and the closing ceremony took place here. The audience capacity at that time was 12,000.
After the Winter Games, the Makomanai indoor stadium was used for various other important sporting events. These belong Hockey B World Cup 1975 , the Asian Winter Games in 1986 , the Asian Winter Games in 1990 , the Winter Universiade in 1991 , several games of the 1998 FIVB Volleyball Men's World Championship and the Volleyball World Cup Men 1999 , the Asian Winter Games 2017 and several events of the Japanese figure skating and curling championships.
In 2001 ownership of the Makomanai Indoor Stadium passed to Hokkaidō Prefecture . The real estate company Seikusui Heim acquired the naming rights on April 1, 2007 and renamed the stadium Makomanai Sekisui Heim Ice Arena . As requested by the Japanese Olympic Committee , the Olympic rings on the facade were then removed.
