Future uses
In March 2019, after the opening of Humo Arena, Binokor Tashkent would host home games of Uzbekistan Hockey League.
Kontinental Hockey League was interested in having several games held there in 2019/20 season for attracting viewers and potential expansion in Uzbekistan. Binokor Tashkent reportedly had a pathway of entering KHL via competing in second tier league VHL by 2020 at the earliest. It is planned that after the opening of the Humo Arena, it will host home matches for Binokor in the VHL and KHL.[5] On 31 May 2019 it was announced that Humo Tashkent would be joining the VHL for the 2019-20 season and not Binokor Tashkent as originally assumed. Humo will play their home games out of the Humo Ice Dome.[6]
The Humo Arena complex will be one of the proposed venues in bidding for the 2030 Asian Games.[7]
