Olympic Ice Sport Centre
The Olympic Ice Sport Centre offers not only plenty of room but also plenty of excitement. It is subdivided into three sections: The Olympic ice stadium, the SoccArena (in the former ice skating tent) and the training hall, the centre for competitive ice skating.
Whereas nowadays the EHC München ice hockey team plays its games in the Olympic Ice Stadium and the multitude of ice sport fans skate around in the Olympic ice stadium, there was a hot battle here during the summer Olympic Games as the boxers fought for medals from round to round. The stadium had been in existence since 1967 and it just happened to be in a good spot to be able to be included in the Olympic planning as a boxing hall.
In the Olympic ice sport centre skaters do figures of eight, pirouettes and rounds. Young and old skaters. From morning till night. Even when the chestnuts are beginning to blossom in the Munich beer gardens.
And instruction is available here too: professional ice skating instructors teach new skating figures to amateurs as well (privat lessons, only upon request). Parties are often held. Rock and pop on runners and hot music on frozen ice.
The winner of several awards, the roofed over, former open-air ice rink built in 1983 next to the hall gives the ice sport centre the final touch. However, this architectural jewel has long been given over to football. In the SoccArena leisure footballers can play on a total of four small fields in teams of five against five.
The training hall was opened in 1991 and has also won several awards for its architecture. It is one of the largest ice skating centres in Europe. With 600 seats and a 60 x 30 m ice surface suitable for competitions, it is the top centre for competitive ice skating.
New at the Olympic Ice Sport Centre:
A special kick is the SoccArena which offers next generation football. Small field football for 5 against 5 players in unique surroundings on confined fields. The ball is always in the game so that speed and action on a blue ground are guaranteed!
There are 4 full-sized fields (30 x 15 m) and one speed court (26 x 13 m) for leisure footballers. All of the fields can be rented for tournaments or by clubs for winter training. A special attraction for young footballers is the Kids Party for birthday parties or similar occasions.
The fields can be booked for an hour or more. Contact the ticket office on 089/30 67-2137.
