Isku Areena is an ice rink located at the Шаблон:Interlanguage link (Lahti Sports Center in English) in Lahti, Finland. It is primarily used for ice hockey, and is the home arena of Lahti Pelicans who play in the ice hockey Шаблон:Interlanguage link (SM league), and the Lahti Ringette team who play in the SM Ringette, ringette league (formerly Шаблон:Interlanguage link) which is Finland's elite semi-professional ringette league. It opened in 1973 and holds 5,530 people. It was renovated in 2007 and 2010.

Isku Areena has a total of 5,371 stands, of which 3,621 are seats and 1,750 are standing. In addition, the hall has 16 stalls and a 200-seat lunch restaurant with a view of the rink.

The seats in Isku Areena are padded, with the exception of the D stands at the old end. The Fanikatsomo of the Lahi Turkoos, i.e. the Pelicans supporter group, is located between the D2 stand and the A1 stand.

History

Until 2005, the hall was called "Lahti jäähalli". The name was changed by a ten-year cooperation agreement between Pelicans, Lahten Jäähalli Oy and Шаблон:Interlanguage link, "Isku-Yhtymä Oy". The hall is the fourth hall of the hockey SM league with a sponsor name.

After the renovation in the summer of 2007, the hall could hold 4,910 people instead of the previous 5,098. In the summer of 2009, a media cube was added to the hall.

In the spring of 2010, a new hall renovation was carried out, with which Isku Areena got about 500-600 new spectator seats and six enclosures. In addition, changes were also made to the ice rink externally, and among other things, the players' changing rooms were renovated and a new lobby was built in the hall.

In the spring of 2022, the D2 grandstand turned into a standing grandstand that can hold more than 1,000 people, where Pelicans supporters will also be positioned. The former Fanikatsomo was transformed into seats offering excellent visibility, and the away fans' stand will move to the corner of the A5 upper stand.
