Osaka Municipal Central Gymnasium (大阪市中央体育館, Ōsaka-shi Chūō Taiikukan), also known as the Asue Arena Osaka (Asueアリーナ大阪) for sponsorship reasons, is an indoor sporting arena located in Minato-ku, Osaka City, Osaka Prefecture, Japan. The arena was opened on 1996. From 1 March 2018 onwards, the arena was named as Maruzen Intec Arena Osaka (丸善インテックアリーナ大阪) after Maruzen Intec secured naming rights for the arena.[1] The name was changed to the current one in 2022 as Maruzen Intec renamed their company as Asue.[2]
This arena was built in Yahataya Park in the Osaka Bay area. The arena is all underground and the roof is covered with planting.
