CSKA Arena (Russian: ЦСКА Арена),[2] formerly known as VTB Ice Palace (Russian: ВТБ Ледовый дворец) and Legends Park Arena (Russian: Арена в Парке Легенд), is an indoor multi-sport venue that is located in Moscow, Russia. Its main sponsor is VTB Bank.
CSKA Arena is a part of the Park of Legends renovation project on the former ZiL auto plant site. It includes the Arena, the Russian Hockey Museum with the Russian Hockey Hall of Glory, Watersport Arena, and Apartments Complex. It is located nearby the ZIL MCC and Avtozavodskaya Metro station.
History
[edit | edit source]The Ice Palace opened on April 26, 2015. It has been the home arena for KHL's club CSKA Moscow since 2018.
From 2015 it was the home stadium for the Kontinental Hockey League ice hockey team Dynamo Moscow before they moved into their newly built own VTB Arena in January 2019. From 2017 to 2021, it was the home arena for Spartak Moscow before they announced plans to move into another Moscow Sports Palace Megasport.
In 2015, five of six matches of Channel One Cup were played in the Arena. In 2016, the arena hosted games of the 2016 IIHF World Championship.
