history

Plan of the Nový Chomutov area with the two ice rinks in the middle

The arena was built with the help of European subsidies under the direction of the consortium IPRM Chomutov on the site of the former barracks in Zadní Vinohrady, which was the seat of the 41st Command, Control and Survey Department of the Czech Army. In addition to the construction of the ice arena with training ice arena, the overall project also included the construction of a cinema, a football stadium, an athletics stadium and an aqua park.

Construction of the ice arena began in April 2009 with the demolition of the existing barracks and the creation of the subsurface. Construction work on the arena was completed in December 2010. On April 30, 2014 the 5,250-seat arena was opened with a game of the veteran teams from Chomutov and the Czech national team. The first game of the Piráti Chomutov was played on August 2, 2011 against HC Energie Karlovy Vary , which the home team won 3-2.

The building consists of a main hall with stands, changing rooms and connected training hall with a capacity of 188 spectators. A video cube with four  LED screens and a light ring hangs above the ice surface . The main arena offers u. a. Shops, offices, VIP rooms, party boxes and a club restaurant with a view of the ice rink. The transport links around the hall have been expanded and several hundred parking spaces are available.

The cost amounted to 643 million  CZK (around 24.9 million  ), of which 232 million CZK (about nine million euros) from the EU funded. The grounds of the large arena also include a training ice hall, which is also open to youth teams, figure skaters, ice skaters and hobby hockey players. The city of Chomutov invested more than 162 million CZK (around 6.27 million euros) in this construction, of which around 127 million CZK (around 4.91 million euros) were subsidies.

In June 2018, the hall received a new sponsor name after the old contract with the Chomutov-based mining company Severočeské doly (SD) expired at the end of 2017. By 2023 the hall will be named Rocknet aréna , after the construction company ROCKNET sro from Jirkov .
