History

[edit]

Trikala Indoor Hall was originally opened in the year 1985, and was renovated and expanded in 2009, by the basketball club Trikala 2000, in order to better meet the needs of the top-tier Greek Basket League, for the club's home games. The arena was renovated again, when the basketball club Trikala Aries joined the top-tier Greek League, with Trikala Indoor Hall being their home arena. The arena has also been used to host home games of the men's Greek national volleyball team.

There are plans to further expand the arena again, in order to meet the 2nd-tier EuroCup's 3,000 seat minimum capacity.
