Versatility for organisers and audience

The Swiss Life Hall Hanover The venue impresses with its versatile use of space: depending on requirements, the interior can be designed as an arena, concert area or conference location. Suitable rooms are also available for smaller events. The technical equipment includes professional lighting and sound technology, backstage areas and barrier-free access.

In terms of sport, the hall is primarily characterised by basketball and handball. It regularly serves as a venue for national and international competitions and is home to various Hanoverian teams. Concerts, comedy, shows and gala events are also regularly on the programme.

Central location with ideal connections
