Lietuvos rytas Arena is a 1,700-seat basketball arena in Vilnius, Lithuania, built close to Siemens Arena. Lietuvos rytas and Perlas play the Lithuanian Basketball League's and the Baltic Basketball League's home matches in the arena.
More important or highly anticipated matches in the LKL and BBL, as well as all home fixtures in European competitions (such as the Euroleague or Eurocup), are played in the Siemens Arena. Now dissolved Lithuanian and European women's basketball powerhouse Teo also played in the Lietuvos rytas Arena.
Famous quotes containing the word arena:
“[I]t forged ahead to become a full-fledged metropolis, with 143 faro games, 30 saloons, 4 banks, 27 produce stores, 3 express offices—and an arena for bull-and-bear fights, which, described by Horace Greeley in the New York Tribune, is said to have given Wall Street its best-known phrases.”
