How much does the Olympic Concert Hall hold? The Olympic Concert Hall is the largest stage of Russian show business

“Disco of the 80s”, Super Disco of the 90s, “Legends of Retro FM”, Song of the Year, MUZ-TV Award... The most high-profile musical events take place at the Olimpiysky! Concerts Justin Timberlake, Aerosmith, Black Sabbath, Linkin Park... At the very big sports arena Not only sports stars, but also music stars shine in Moscow...

In the "Olympic" several sites for performances. The huge central arena has a capacity of 35,000 seats. But the Sever concert hall can accommodate a maximum of 5,000 people. And at the Olimpiysky there is a technical possibility to divide the arena in half. Two events can take place on the site at the same time, but they will be completely isolated from each other.

The most convenient places

Any stadium is designed according to the principle “For every spectator - good review! But, you must admit, at a concert you still want to see the performer from the front, and not just from the back. “The problem of good seats” always exists: at biathlon competitions, at SUV shows, and at a rock concert. And here it is already necessary to extract the maximum from the layout of the hall.

And in the Olimpiysky, as in any modern complex, it can change. At concerts there is often a dance floor (fan zone), and at the championship in rhythmic gymnastics he is unnecessary. And on the diagram you need to look not only at the proximity of the place to the stage, but also at its position in space.

Many events have additional seating. It is designed for 5-6000 people and belongs to VIP seats. Such places - The best decision, if the budget framework can be smoothly expanded.

Extra ticket without queuing!

As soon as the show appears in the Olympic plan, we have tickets! We offer all kinds of places. These are acceptable budget ones, comfortable stalls, and VIP, when you are really one step away from the stage.

And most importantly, we have eliminated long searches and long lines at the box office. We don't have that. But there is convenient online booking– go online and order a ticket. For practical clients we open sales in a few months before the show.

Did you realize it the day before the event? We will do our best. And the ticket We will deliver to your home or office. We can come to another named place. We are obligatory and punctual - your tickets to the Olimpiysky will be with you at the appointed time. So, don’t miss your chance to go to the biggest musical event of the year! Tickets to the Olympic You can book a concert of famous performers now!

Address: Moscow, Olimpiysky pr., 16с1

How to get there:
Walking distance from Prospekt Mira metro station (radial). The first car from the center, exit to the left towards the sign “Olympic Sports Complex”. After exiting the metro, you need to turn right and follow the pedestrian lane (for reference, there will be a McDonald's restaurant on the left, then a church) until the intersection with Shchepkina Street. The central ticket office of the Olimpiyskiy Sports Complex is located on the right side.
Walking distance from Prospekt Mira metro station (circular). From the metro station, go towards the underground passage, then cross to the opposite side and follow straight through the tram tracks along the pedestrian lane (for reference, there is a McDonald's restaurant on the right in the distance, further along the road on the right there is a church) until the intersection with Shchepkina Street. The central ticket office of the Olimpiyskiy Sports Complex is located on the right side.

The large-scale Olympic sports complex, whose concert hall capacity reaches thirty-five thousand people, is a multifunctional and unique structure. Olympic is truly located near the historical center of our capital, in the Meshchansky district.

The Olympic Stadium was opened for the Moscow Olympics in 1980; the complex was built in just three years on the site of the Burevestnik stadium. The sports complex includes two sports facilities in the form of oval-shaped buildings. One of them has an indoor stadium, and the other has swimming pools. There is a book fair in the southwestern part of the complex, and every winter an outdoor skating rink is opened next to the Olympic Stadium.

The area of ​​the entire complex is almost 55 thousand sq.m. Various sports championships in boxing, bandy, swimming, etc. are held on the territory. Twenty Russian teams regularly conduct training in various sports on the territory of the complex. Various sports sections operate daily at the Olimpiyskiy, in which more than six thousand people train.

Since 1982, the Olympic Stadium has also become a music arena. Concerts of Russian and foreign performers and musical groups regularly take place here. In 2009, a musical concert was held here, and in 1986, a large-scale charity concert “Score 904” was held at the Olimpiysky, designed to raise funds to help the victims of the terrible accident in Chernobyl.
It should be noted that the Olympic Stadium provides high-level comfortable conditions for athletes, artists, and spectators.

Did you know that when the Olympic Palace opened in 1980, it had no equal in the world? And now few cities have similar indoor arenas - Manchester, Belgrade. But the Olympic Sports Complex, whose concert hall capacity is simply enormous, still has the status of the largest indoor European stadium!

Capacity of the Olympic

The central arena in Olimpiyskiy seats from thirty thousand spectators (sometimes they indicate up to thirty-five thousand spectators), and its size corresponds to the size of a football field. The indoor stadium building has a unique feature in the form of a soundproof partition that is nearly nine stories high, can be disassembled and assembled in two and a half hours, and allows for multiple events to be held simultaneously.

It is difficult to say how many sporting or cultural events take place at the Olympic Stadium each year. Statistics indicate a figure of almost three hundred such events, and about 3.5 million spectators attend them!

For any artist, a concert at the Olimpiysky is the most important, significant event. This is the largest indoor arena in Russia and only the most popular and beloved artists can fill the hall. After all, the capacity of the Olympic Stadium in Moscow for the concert is more than thirty thousand spectators.

There is a similar sports complex in St. Petersburg. In addition to the exterior (in the St. Petersburg sports complex - the facade white), there are a number of differences between the two structures of different nature. For example, the capacity of the Olympic Stadium in Moscow is officially ten thousand more spectators; in St. Petersburg it is twenty-five thousand people.

I have been to various events at the Olympic Palace several times, including large concerts where the hall was (as it seemed to me) full. You always think about how important it is to properly organize this entire flow that is still moving through the streets towards the Olympic, to comply with all safety measures and not create a crush. In my cases of visiting, everything was at the highest level, although the information about the capacity of the Olympic Stadium for more than thirty thousand people (in one place!) makes me wonder.

Hi all!

I recently attended a concert at the Olimpiysky Sports Complex. It wasn’t my first time there, but after a long break.

New information about sector C6 at the end of the review + photo!

About sector B (sector B) read:

Currently, the sports complex is used both as a sports ground, and as a swimming pool, and as a venue for various concerts and events that require a large, spacious hall (up to 35,000 when used as a stadium, up to 28,000 when used as a concert arena), and all sorts of As for the little things, there are many located in the UK (various retail, commercial, medical institutions). I was at concerts, and in the pool area, at children's performances... But today MY REVIEW WILL BE EXACTLY ABOUT THAT PART OF THE COMPLEX WHERE THE CONCERTS ARE HELD (SOUTH Arena).

To be honest, I found out about the performance of my favorite group by chance, many tickets had already been sold out, which ones to take from the remaining ones - I had absolutely no idea, because... I was there at a concert about 10 years ago, and on recent occasions I attended children’s shows in another part of the sports complex.

The tickets were quite expensive. I didn’t want to buy and end up in bad places. Or pay twice as much for approximately the same space. Moreover, I wasn’t going alone and it was quite expensive for three! There is little information and photos and videos on the Internet. I was not ready to go to the fan zone. And so I suffered for several days, and the tickets became fewer and fewer...

As a result, I had to take tickets to the very top sector B, but in the middle (these are sectors B-8 and B-9). It was possible to buy a balcony below, sector A, but in terms of distance from the stage it was located the same, just a tier lower, and the cost was already 2 times more expensive, and there were no more central seats.

HALL LAYOUT(it may be slightly different, change from concert to concert. If you are going to a concert, look at the information about it on the website, there will be a diagram specifically for your event).

RULES FOR ATTENDING EVENTS AT SC “OLYMPIYSKY”(how to behave, what you can carry, etc.)

HOW TO GET TO THE OLYMPIYSKY SC

On SITE other information is also provided. For example, about attending events by minors, persons with disabilities, specifications sites, etc.

Well, here we are with the treasured tickets at SK! It must be said that the lucky ones from the fan zone usually arrive very early, stand in line at the entrance and, as soon as they start, run to take a place closer to the stage. Comrades with seats may not be in much of a hurry. Firstly, there are many entrances and there are no crowds. Secondly, not a single concert has yet started on time, in any case, the warm-up band will definitely sing for 20-30 minutes. Thirdly, there is simply nothing to do in the IC itself.

But first things first.

Each person who comes goes through 2-3 cordons security . They will put you through a metal detector, and the dogs will sniff you, and the police will feel you.

Inside ... well, who was there 10-15 years ago - everything is the same! Dull tiled walls like in a public toilet, old stairs, markings of sectors and places.

On the podium itself everything is also unchanged. Plastic chairs from the Olympics, with seat numbers written on them in paint that you can barely make out. People are packed tightly into these chairs; there is simply nowhere to put a bottle of water. There are no barriers; if you drop your phone, it flies down the rows. Behind you, you actually have someone’s legs on your shoulders..... A little looser, but the same plastic chairs in the VIP seats (sectors C8 - C15).

As I already said, there is nothing to do in the IC itself. To be honest, I was hoping to shoot something, some promotional materials, posters... Nothing. Bare walls. It’s as if there won’t be a concert now, but we’ll go to the pool.

Trade represented by single tables with T-shirts, CDs and some Chinese junk. At exorbitant prices, of course.

About food and drink: Well, this is completely out of the question! On the floors there are counter tables, through which the saleswomen actively pour water for everyone (also for fantastic money) and you can have a little snack. We are teetotalers, the concert was very late, we wanted to eat, we went to this “buffet”. We bought a small bottle of water, a small juice, a small chocolate bar (not even a candy bar), one cola and one sandwich. They gave 850 rubles! So, citizens, eat well before the concert, there is nothing to eat there!

Again - we collected these bottles and juices, all this in our hands, another bag, binoculars, and then the concert begins, we have to run to the seats, we settled there like sparrows on perches, our hands are busy, we also need to take out the phone for a photo, put it down nowhere but right on the concrete floor under the seat….

About natural needs: queues. But it's free.

About the wardrobe and binoculars: There are wardrobes. Binoculars are issued as follows: 500 rubles cost to use the binoculars (non-refundable amount), 1000 deposit if you do not return clothes, and no deposit if you do return them. Moreover, you can donate anything, even a T-shirt. Think about a spare item that you can put in your wardrobe if you don’t want to leave 1000 rubles as a deposit. (By the way, the binoculars are of very mediocre quality).

About the ventilation and air conditioning system: We sat at the very top and it is under the ceiling that the ventilation system is located. Before the hall was completely packed and the concert began, I was afraid that I would be blown away, but after the start of the event it was very hot. I can’t imagine what it was like for those sitting or standing below.

About places: I post real photos from the Olimpiyskiy Sports Complex with location markings. And I will share my comments. Of course, if you are young, strong and resilient, then you need to go to the fan zone, and closer to the stage. There are usually all sorts of cute things going on there. You can not only sing and dance well, but also, with a very successful set of circumstances, hug with your favorite artist or catch a small gift from the musicians. In dance stalls and sides like C1, C2, C3, C4, C22, C 21, C20, C19, as well as A1, A2, A3, A18, A17, A16 in the absence of an additional stage (language), or if the artist has little time to perform - most likely, you can only listen. Unfortunately, the hall is so unmodernized that even such a “miracle” as side screens is not provided (whatever! These rags alone that separate the stage from the rest of the arena are worth it!). There is one screen in the center. And now I’m just getting closer to how we looked from the sector AT 8. Well, in the most ideal scenario, I would not only get into the fan zone, I would also get onto the stage, but I will say that I was not mistaken with the places. The hall is located in tiers, so a little lower or a little higher doesn’t play a special role, it won’t make you sit any closer. But sitting as centrally as possible is important! Firstly, you can evaluate the entire show as a whole. Secondly, the screen is also in the center and some details can be seen through it.



About the sound: The sound was very mediocre. Simply put – fonilo! The speakers are located near the stage and under the ceiling in the hall. Everyone can hear it.

About the concert itself: The concert, of course, was amazing. Despite all the organizational disadvantages and shortcomings, unfortunately, we do not have a site of equal capacity. We have to be content with what we have. Although it would, of course, be happier to be in a pleasant, beautiful, festive environment, since you paid a lot of money and came to the concert. And it’s somehow embarrassing to invite artists to such a barn (it must be).

For those who will go to the event at the Olimpiysky Sports Complex by car: Place away from the SC. The sea of ​​people will flow through all the nearby streets for at least half an hour. The cars will stop.

If I were to rate the concert, Airek would not have enough stars. I think that your event will leave the most pleasant memories. Therefore, despite the low rating, I recommend it. I recommend that you attend cultural events, concerts, performances. It's energizing!

But I give the Olimpiyskiy Sports Complex itself a barely stretched C grade and sincerely hope that it will undergo modernization in the near future!

November 2017:

Hey! I was in the Olympic again! I bought tickets on the eve of the concert and got Sector C6, row 14, seats 14-15. We could hardly see the screens (but there was a passage nearby, you could go out to do business or dance, but closer to the end of the sector you could already see the screens and a better stage). The sound is still just as disgusting, the different instruments and voices don't mix well. U sectors A-C your wardrobe on the minus second floor. This is tough! After the concert, you can spend up to an hour there in the crush. But there are a lot of water closets and there is more decent food (on the floors above there are also tables with sandwiches). Binoculars also cost 500 rubles when returning clothes. See the photo as seen from sector C6:


"Olympic" is a legendary sports facility, one of the main attractions of Moscow. The history of the sports complex goes back four decades. It was built for the 1980 Olympic Games and for a long time was the largest indoor sports facility in Europe.

At the end of 2017, the property was acquired by the Kyiv Ploshchad group of companies owned by God Nisanov and Zarakh Iliev. The holding is currently reconstructing the complex, which is scheduled for completion in 2023.

The new Olimpiysky will be equipped with a multifunctional arena intended for concerts, sports and circus events, space for exhibitions and conferences, a multiplex cinema, a children's entertainment center, an electronic library, a medical diagnostic center, and the project also includes a planetarium. Moving panoramic restaurants will operate on its roof.

After reconstruction, Olimpiyskiy will retain its sports function. The renovated Olimpiyskiy will again feature swimming and diving pools, an indoor ice skating rink, gyms, as well as a water park, diving center, tennis courts, spa and fitness areas, etc. In addition, parking will be expanded, which will make visiting the Olympic Stadium more comfortable.

For more than one decade in a row, the Olympic sports complex has been considered almost the main attraction of Moscow. And this is not surprising, because it is located in the center of the capital of the Russian Federation and always pleases both residents and guests of the city with its unsurpassed scope, modern design, unprecedented scale and beauty. What distinguishes SK Olimpiyskiy from similar facilities is that it offers the most high level comfort for athletes and artists during performances.

From the history of the Olympic

It is important that such a majestic and interesting structure has a history of equal importance. The Olympic Stadium was built on the site of the famous Burevestnik, a stadium that plays a vital role in the life of the capital. Here, both football players and track and field athletes, weightlifters and swimmers, city workers and volleyball players conducted their training sessions. On the territory of the stadium there were several sports grounds and fields for games, running tracks, courts, where up to half a thousand athletes could train at the same time.

SC Olympic, in the good sense of the word, is elitist. But at the same time, he does not boast of his superiority, providing absolutely the same opportunities for both celebrities and ordinary people who want to improve their physical shape. Ticket offices in Olimpiyskiy open to everyone. Here children take their first steps in sports, and their parents express their emotions in the stands in heated world-class sports competitions. We have the most complete concert poster of the Olympic.

What events take place at the Olympic Sports Complex?

We can highlight the following famous events that took place within the walls of the UK:

Eurovision 2009; concert “Account No. 904” designed to raise funds to help the victims of Chernobyl (1986); Deep Purple concert; Marilyn Manson concert, as part of the “Against All Gods” tour, etc.

But this is all in the past, however, in the future the practice of holding such events will continue, because the sports complex has not only managed to establish itself as a convenient concert venue, but can also rightfully be considered a landmark of the capital. Buy tickets for a concert at the Olimpiyskiy Sports Complex It will be possible at ticket offices, but it will be much more convenient to do this at our company “VipTicket”.

But one of the main activities of the sports complex is, of course, the organization of sporting events. The Olympic Stadium traditionally hosts the most significant sporting events in the Russian Federation and the world. Among the most famous are the Olympic Games of 80, the Goodwill Games of 86, etc. Championships in boxing, swimming, bandy and many others are regularly held on the grounds of the complex.

The colorful shows taking place at the Olympic Stadium are not all that it is famous for. Among other things, the sports complex has an extremely developed infrastructure. There is very convenient parking; on the territory of the complex there are also many cafes, bars, restaurants, shops and SPA salons.

But a significant drawback is the difficulty in purchasing tickets. They are sold out in advance, often several months in advance, and some have to overpay significant amounts of money.

But our company suggests that you consider everything first tickets and schedule of concerts at the Olimpiyskiy, at weighted prices and then place an order .

With us you can easily order tickets for all the concerts you are interested in at the Olimpiysky. We will find the best places for you, based on your wishes and capabilities.
