Palace of Sports or Sports Palace (Russian: Дворец спорта, romanized: Dvorets sporta; Ukrainian: Палац спорту, romanized: Palats sportu) is a generic name of comprehensive indoors sports venues introduced in the Soviet Union (compare with Palace of Culture) of big size that includes various sports halls and auxiliary space.[1][2] Primarily designated to host sports events in front of spectators.
As a name, it is still used in several post-Soviet states. Many of them had standard architectural designs. Some of them were renamed, e.g., into Palace of Concerts and Sports.
The term is also used in other countries. For example, the term is Palacio de los Deportes in Hispanophone countries or Palais des Sports in Francophone countries.
