A gorgeous arena! Lots of seats, clean, the acoustics are amazing! The children of 2012 were playing, they were traveling here from Magnitogorsk. We were warmly welcomed, the staff was polite. The interior design is very beautiful! The only thing I didn't really like was the size of the seats themselves, they seem to be lower and smaller than usual (my legs are numb) and there are already aisles between the rows, it's just scary to pass by sitting people - there is a risk of flying down.
In general, I really liked it, we are waiting for the guys from Barys to visit us!
We visited a hockey match for the first time, although Barys did not win, but the atmosphere turned out to be charged, cohesive, we liked the arena very much - it was convenient, modern, safe, there was a cafe for a snack, there is even a large children's playground, a great place!
The best seats among the arenas I've been to, great view. A great fan shop, professional stewards and entertainment at halftime.
Minuses:
- despite the fact that the arena is modern, there are no escalators; you can't take everyone out by elevators.
- The strange, "frivolous" coloring of the foyer, which stands out from the general color noise and style of the team, is especially noticeable after leaving the bowl. It is worth changing beige to bright white, with black ceilings, the rest of the colors are also darker shades.
