The Galatsi Olympic Hall is a mult-use indoor arena that is located in Galatsi, Athens, Greece. It was the site of table tennis and rhythmic gymnastics at the 2004 Summer Olympics.[1] The arena was completed in May 2004, and officially opened on July 30, 2004, shortly before the beginning of the Olympics. The Galatsi Olympic Hall has a seating capacity of 6,200. That includes 5,141 permanent seats in the upper tier, and the movable lower tier seats.

History

After the 2004 Olympics, Galatsi Olympic Hall served as the home court of the Greek Basketball League club AEK Athens, before the team moved to the Olympic Indoor Hall. It was then turned over to the private sector (Acropol Haragionis AE and Sonae Sierra SGPS S.A), and was used as a shopping center.
