01 / About us

Arenas Europe represents 46 arenas in 20 European countries, operating some of the world’s leading venues and staging outstanding programmes of music, family shows, comedy, sport and corporate events. Together, they help shape the future of live entertainment across the continent.

Arenas are the central component of an ecosystem of event-related activities, bringing together a long chain of interlinked service providers who are all essential for artists and athletes to perform in front of European audiences.

Arenas today are deeply embedded in local communities, embracing all audiences and bringing people together around the positive values of sport, music, performing arts, and all other genres of live entertainment.

Looking to the future, arenas must continue to develop and embrace change. Ongoing digital development will be at the heart of this evolution, but they must also embrace resilience and build environmentally sustainable operating models that will be demanded by fans, regulators, and key stakeholders.

Arenas Europe exists to represent the broad interests of its members, enabling them to build strong, thriving businesses both today and in the future.

As a leading authority on arenas in Europe, we are committed to building networks, forming industry alliances, and engaging proactively with regional and national policymakers, as well as European governing bodies, to ensure we have a strong voice and a seat at the table of influence.

Arenas Europe aims to be a beacon of best practice and knowledge-sharing across all areas of business, particularly in supporting the cultural and environmental well-being of future generations, our customers, our employees, and wider society.
