The Arena (Ahmedabad)

The Arena (branded as The Arena by TransStadia) is a multi-purpose stadium in Ahmedabad, Gujarat, India. The venue is a public-private partnership between the government of Gujarat and TransStadia.[1][2] It was opened in October 2016 to host the Kabaddi World Cup.

The stadium seats 20,000 in its outdoor configuration, which is built to FIFA specifications. Using technology licensed from the British firm StadiArena, a portion of the field can be partitioned into a 4,000-seat indoor arena. The stadium is currently named for its developer, TransStadia, although naming rights will be sold at a later date.[3][4]
