O2 World
is a multi-use indoor arena in Berlin, Germany that is currently under construction. It is being developed by Anschutz Entertainment Group. The name of the development became O2 World when Telefonica O2 Germany purchased the naming rights from Anschutz Entertainment Group.[
]
Once completed in 2008, it will be used mostly for ice hockey, basketball and handball matches as well as concerts. The arena will have a capacity of 17,000 people. It is to become the home of the Eisbären Berlin ice hockey club. The surrounding area will be filled with various entertainment venues including a cinema, a casino, a hotel and various bars and restaurants. [1] The arena will host the 2008-09 Euroleague Final four [2]
The LED construction grid on the facade of the arena will be equipped with more than 300,000 LED clusters on a 12 m high and approximately 120 m wide section of the semicircular 105° glass facade with a total area of more than 1,440 m2. Light pixels, consisting of two groups of 19 LEDs (colour palette: 16.7 million RGB colours) will be attached to the vertical bracing of the facade. The vertical distances are 0.20m and the horizontal distances between the axes are planned to be 0.90m.
The first band to play at the O2World was Metallica on the 12th of September. In late 2008 the O2 World
will host concerts by Elton John, Alicia Keys and Coldplay among others. In the beginning of 2009 Tina Turner is going to play two shows in the arena with ten more shows to follow in other German cities. These dates are already sold-out and are in support of her Tina: Live in Concert Tour
