The stands/seats could be steeper. But the exterior architecthure is good. Spain is delivering a lot of good modern architechture these days as is Portugal.

Kinda ugly...

Ceiling looks really too low. But the areana itself is not bad.

15,414 record, but was it sold out?
Cause i thought capacity is 18,640?

It's kinda weird.
The stands are too flat. It dosn't look like a real arena. More like some hangar with (plastic :ohno: ) seats.

Look at this pic

I think all stands are moveable and its more a big hall were you can change all stand or remove them.

:eek2: Now THAT'S a LAN party!

It looks like a big waste of space where very few fortunate people have the gift of good sight. Jack of all trades, master of none kind of a thing. I'd say let's turn it into a big super market or even better a big disco!

my two cents.

My two cents: This arena is just a whole bunch of temporary stands and no luxury suites. I don't know how this arena transforms from an indoor arena to a theatre to an exhibition hall. I don't know if Bilbao has an indoor arena with permanent stands.

No luxury suites = no European Championship, no World Championship, no Euroleague FINAL FOUR.

Rules are very stupid:DSport is for fans not for "big fishes"

Any wwe events there

Bilbao has been selected as one of the arenas where world championship will be celebrated. It is the biggest one in Spain.

I'm sorry, but I don't quite like it (you could better built REAL arena instead of this hangar:ohno:).

Jack of all trades, master of none kind of a thing.

Truth! I just can't imagine myself enjoying a play in "theatre" like this.:nuts:

according to wiki and the webiste of the basketball team cap is 10,500 at basketball?
why?

Just seems like they done a lazy job on it, temporary seating basically.
