History

edit

The Idda Arena (opened on 3 September 2011) is a multi-purpose hall that consists of ice hockey, curling, a sports hall, martial arts, fencing dance and a gym. Adjacent to the Arena, is a skate park and football pitch.[2] It replaced the Idda Idrettsplassen, an outdoor sports field used for skating, football (first used in 1924) and athletics.[3][4]

The Norwegian Individual Speedway Championship (motorcycle speedway) was held at Idda Idrettsplassen in 1960.[3][5]
