The new Inalpi Arena in Turin was built in 2005 by architects Arata Isozaki e Pier Paolo Maggiora to host the ice hockey competition during the 2006 Turin Winter Olympics. Designed as a “factory of events” (citing Isozaki itself), the flexible structure features movable and retractable seating arrangements, modern acoustics and facilities. Originally inaugurated as PalaOlimpico on December 13, 2005, the arena is managed by Parcolimpico s.r.l., a private company in which Live Nation, the world’s leading live events producer, is the major shareholder. In partnership with Live Nation, Inalpi Arena has become a major entertainment center in Italy, hosting around 50 events in 2023 with nearly 500,000 attendees. Since 2024, a partnership has formed between Parcolimpico and Inalpi Spa, a historic Piedmontese milk company founded in 1966. The arena, with a capacity of up to 15,666 people, is versatile for various sports, music, corporate, trade, congress and entertainment events. Parcolimpico aims to enhance the site’s energy efficiency, making it environmentally sustainable with 100% renewable energy use and ISO45001 certification for health and safety.
