Taipei Arena Introduction
Taipei Arena, also known as Taipei Arena, is located at the intersection of Dunhua North Road and Section 4 of Nanjing East Road in Songshan District. It was formerly the Taipei Municipal Baseball Stadium. At the end of 2000, the Taipei City Government demolished the old baseball stadium and built a 15,000-seat multi-purpose sports arena on the original site. Taipei Arena is an important indoor venue in the overall planning and construction of sports facilities in Taipei City, with the building comprising the main arena and a secondary arena. The main arena is a steel and reinforced concrete structure with 2 underground levels and 5 above ground levels, covering a total floor area of approximately 90,900 square meters. The internal dimensions of the main venue are 76 meters long and 41.5 meters wide, and when the retractable seating is fully extended, the venue still maintains a size of 60 meters by 29.5 meters. The central area can also be entirely frozen as needed, transforming it into a standard indoor ice sports venue. The venue can be flexibly adjusted as needed, allowing it to host major events sanctioned by international sports federations, and it is a popular venue for domestic and international cultural and artistic groups seeking to rent for performances. The secondary arena (Ice Park) remains frozen year-round, making it the only indoor ice skating rink in Taiwan that meets international standards, with a seating capacity of 800. The ice rink measures 61 meters by 30 meters and is equipped with facilities for ice hockey and speed skating, allowing it to host standard indoor ice sports competitions. On weekdays, it is open for public skating and offers various teaching and training programs. The Ice Park also welcomes applications from school clubs or companies for group entry and can arrange experienced skating instructors to guide the public in experiencing the joy of skating. In addition, Taipei Arena includes approximately 2,000 pings of commercial facilities, featuring well-known chain restaurants, convenience stores, fitness centers, family leisure centers, health products, and various specialty shops to meet the dining, shopping, and entertainment needs of the public.
