history
The groundbreaking ceremony for today's artificial ice stadium took place in 1961. It is noteworthy that at this point in time there was no building permit, which was submitted later. On January 13, 1962, the ice rink was inaugurated. After it was still an open-air stadium at the beginning, the stadium was taken over by the city of Rosenheim in 1973, rebuilt and roofed over with a glulam construction. At peak times it had a capacity of 8,400 spectators. The sports facility was then called the Frucade Stadium, then the Marox Stadium and, from the 1990s, the Kathrein Stadium . Since then, the Starbulls Rosenheim have played in this stadium, from the professional to the small school team, which were previously known as EV Rosenheim or the Sportbund Rosenheim. It is also the home of the street hockey club "Wildboys Rosenheim" and the EV Rosenheim as well as various local ice sports clubs.
On December 31, 2015, the sponsorship agreement for the naming rights expired without an extension by Kathrein. The manufacturer of antenna and satellite technology wants to stay with the Starbulls Rosenheim as a sponsor.
As of April 1, 2016, the ice rink was named emilo-Stadion . The naming rights contract was signed at the beginning of March of that year. The name giver is the Munich coffee roasting company Emilo. In April of that year the new name was installed on the hall. At the beginning of February 2019, Rosenheim's Lord Mayor Gabriele Bauer signed a new sponsorship agreement on the name of the hall with the chairwoman of the board, Wolfgang Kozsar, and board member Andreas Bauer of Rofa Industrial Automation AG from Kolbermoor . Since April 1st of that year, the home ground of the Starbulls has been called Rofa Stadium . Rofa stands for Rosenheim conveyor systems .
