Leipzig Arena

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

Well-known artists such as Rammstein, Simply Red and Udo Jürgens have had their tour stopover here. The versatility of the venue means that the organisers are able to stage various scaled events.

The key event space in the Arena Leipzig is its main hall. However, the complex also comprises two further halls that are predominantly used for sports training.

The Arena features a bistro restaurant that includes a large patio area with 130 seats - this is open to the public during and after events. There are additional food and beverage take away counters located inside the Arena for ticket holders. Their availability is dependant on the event taking place.
