2300 Arena
2300 Arena is a multipurpose indoor arena in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, used primarily for professional wrestling, boxing, mixed martial arts, and concert events. Originally known as Viking Hall, the venue has since been named XPW Arena, New Alhambra Sports & Entertainment Center, New Alhambra Arena, The Arena and Asylum Arena. It was known unofficially as ECW Arena when it was home to Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW) from 1993 to 2001.
The venue has hosted professional wrestling broadcasts including the first ECW pay-per-view Barely Legal, and the first Dragon Gate USA pay-per-view Enter the Dragon. It has hosted professional boxing broadcasts, including ESPN's Friday Night Fights and Wednesday Night Fights, for which it was named ESPN2's 2006 venue of the year.
Recognized as the birthplace of American hardcore wrestling, the venue has been home to the Hardcore Hall of Fame since 2002.
