Arena Leipzig – top venue for music, show and sports

Leipzig has a state-of-the-art multi-purpose event venue that rivals Germany’s large-scale event arenas.

Well-known artists like Rammstein, Simply Red or Udo Jürgens had their tour stopover here as well as newcomer bands like Silbermond or the popular comedian Mario Barth. No matter if concert, show, sports, conference or convention, the Arena Leipzig organisers are given the possibility to stage events of different scales according to their very own ideas.

The real centrepiece and main venue for large-scale events in the Arena Leipzig is its main hall. However, the complex also comprises two further halls that are predominantly used for training such as ball sports, judo and wrestling. On the catering side, the Arena Leipzig features a bistro including a large patio with 130 seats. The bistro is at the public's service during and after events. During events only, additional take-away counters are open for ticket holders only, located in the two main corridors inside the Arena Leipzig after ticket control.
