PalaBarbuto, also known by its
indoor sporting arena located in Naples, Italy. The facility is located in Viale Giochi del Mediterraneo, in close proximity to the Olympic swimming pool Piscina Felice Scandone
.
History
The arena was built and inaugurated in 2003, with a capacity of 4,000 seats, to host
Euroleague arena requirements, which at that time required a minimum of 5,000 seats. In 2016, PalaBarbuto was closed for a number of games due to problems with electrical and fire safety systems.[1][2]
The restyling for the 2019 Universiade
In 2019, in view of the
FISU requirements, two LED wall screens were installed, rented specifically for the event and removed at the end.[3]
Two new LED walls, similar to those used for the Universiade, were installed the following September, to replace the old luminous display board.
