The Omsk Arena ( Russian Арена-Омск ) is a multifunctional hall in the Russian city of Omsk in Siberia , which opened in 2007 and is about to be demolished.

It held 10,318 spectators for ice hockey games. 11,000 seats were available for concerts .
history
Until 2012, the arena was owned by Roman Abramovich , who transferred the building to HK Avangard Omsk in April 2012 . The arena was the venue for two games in the 2007 Super Series between the junior national teams of Russia and Canada. The hall was opened on August 31, 2007 with the first game (2: 6). The next day the Russians lost their second game 2: 4. From 2011 to 2013 the junior ice hockey tournament Junior Club World Cup took place in the Omsk Arena . In the 2011/12 KHL season , the HK Awangard Omsk reached the Gagarin Cup finals against the OHK Dynamo from Moscow and four games were played in the Omsk hall.
In August 2018, cracks were discovered in the foundation of the building during construction work on the arena. This led to an immediate evacuation and permanent closure of the building. Awangard Omsk then decided to play his home games in Balashicha ( Moscow Oblast ), 2,500 km away, in the Balashicha Arena after the club had excluded other venues such as the new arena in Krasnoyarsk .
In March 2019, it was decided to demolish the existing building just twelve years after its opening and to replace it with a new building.
