Spaladium Arena is a multi-purpose indoor arena located in Split, Croatia. It was opened in December 2008, and hosted the following month's World Men's Handball Championship in 2009.[4] The hall will host the event again in 2025 with Croatia, Denmark, and Norway as national co-hosts.

As of August 2013, Spaladium Arena had been closed for more than a year over the inability of its operators to cover the maintenance costs.[5] It was reopened for a Severina concert in December 2013.[6][7] As of 2020, the arena was largely out of use.[1]
