The London Arena (also known as London Docklands Arena) was an indoor arena and exhibition centre in Millwall, close to the Cubitt Town area of Poplar, on the Isle of Dogs, in east London, England which was inaugurated in 1989 and demolished for housing in 2006.

It could seat up to 12,500 people in the stands and up to 15,000 in concert mode. Events ranged from sport events like basketball, ice hockey, professional wrestling, and boxing to music concerts and trade exhibitions. It was the home of the London Knights ice hockey team, the London Towers basketball team and later the Greater London Leopards basketball team.
