SKA Arena

Common card · No. 285678

SKA Arena (Russian: СКА Арена) is a multi-purpose indoor arena in Saint Petersburg, Russia. Opened in 2023, it is the home arena of SKA Saint Petersburg and the Shanghai Dragons (since 2025) of the Kontinental Hockey League. With a seating capacity of 22,500 (originally 21,542) for ice hockey games, it is the largest hockey arena in the world, a title that used to be held by the Bell Centre in Montreal, Canada. The arena was originally planned to host the main games of 2023 IIHF World Championship, but, in April 2022, the IIHF stripped Russia's hosting rights while the International Olympic Committee called for Russia and Belarus to be stripped of hosting rights to all international sporting events due to the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
