About MEO Arena

MEO Arena, in Lisbon, Portugal, is an indoor venue for many kinds of events, among the largest in Europe and the biggest in the country, and it takes 20,000 people. The arena went up in 1998 for Expo '98, where it served as the Pavilion of Utopia and put on "Oceans and Utopias".

The Portuguese architect Regino Cruz designed the building with Skidmore, Owings & Merrill. Its shape has been compared to a horseshoe crab, a sea turtle's shell and a flying saucer, and the roof rests on a wood grid laid out as a carrack, a choice that suited an exposition about the oceans and Portugal's 15th-century voyages of discovery. The main floor sits 6.4 m below ground level, which let the architects keep a high roof while reducing the external footprint.

The building has carried several names. It was known as the Pavilhão Atlântico and took the MEO Arena name in May 2013, when Portugal Telecom bought the naming rights; in October 2017, after Altice took over Portugal Telecom, it became the Altice Arena; and in February 2024 it went back to MEO Arena. The main facade faces south, and an external staircase wraps around the whole building.
