History
Ivanofeio Sports Arena opened in 1987, to host the games of Iraklis.[2] It is owned by GS Iraklis, and was named after Jerzy Iwanow-Szajnowicz, a Polish athlete of GS Iraklis, and a member of the Greek Resistance, who was executed ιν 1943 in Athens by the Axis occupation forces.[2] Expansion works took place in 1991, to increase the capacity from 1,300 to 2,500.[2] Ivanofeio has hosted games of the Greek Basket League, the EuroLeague, the Korać Cup, and the Saporta Cup. Iraklis' fans refer to Ivanofeio as "o Naos" (Greek: ο Ναός), which is Greek for "the Temple".[3]
Apart from Iraklis, Ivanofeio hosted the home games of Aris during the 2003–04 season.[4][5] Ivanofeio also hosts non-sports activities, such as music concerts.[6]
