History
The Palace of Sports in Kyiv is the very "heart" of the city. The building is located at the foot of Cherepanova mountain. The complex was erected by 1960 by urban planners A. I. Zavarov, M. I. Grechin, as well as engineers S. Chudnovskaya, V. I. Rep. The frame of the structure is a reinforced concrete product. The structure was built with a height of 4 floors, on a plot of about two hundred thousand square meters. In Kyiv, the Sports Palace was officially opened to the public on 1960-09-12.
Contests, championships were held in his arena; it accommodated about 12 thousand people. The founders then decidedto restore the building after twenty years. They installed new lighting and technical equipment, completely transformed the lobbies, built toilets for guests and participants and created space for a cafe. In order to accommodate more spectators, the sports complex was modified in 2004 and 2005. As a result, the Kyiv Palace of Sports turned out to be beautiful and roomy, residents invite everyone to look at it and even take part in competitions. For many years, fairs, exhibitions, competitions and championships have been repeatedly held in the complex. At least about five thousand gala concerts, fifty competitions, seminars and conferences, ice performances took place here. Popular singers and bands such as Jennifer Lopez, Christina Aguilera, Britney Spears, The Rasmus, ATB, Prodigy and many more have performed. Here, in 2005, the idea of creating the premiere of the Eurovision music contest was realized, and soon a similar competition for children appeared.
Arena
In the spring of 2011, a festive ceremony was held to mark the opening of the complex after a short interval of 6 months. The arena and the locker rooms were in desperate need of a refurbishment, which was done. At the same time, new seats were installed, which are painted in the color of the national flag, and an electronic scoreboard was updated, the model of which is similar to a cube. It is connected from several plasma displays that can show various sports tournaments and performances taking place in the arena. Today it has become more convenient for visitors, because now they get maximum delight and pleasure when visitingPalace of Sports. The photo of the hall conveys only a part of all this splendor.
The arena stage deserves special interest, which is a unique creation. All guests can clearly see any action in different places of the podium.
