Shekvetili

Black Sea Arena is located in the seaside resort of Shekvetili, just 200 metres from the Black Sea coast. The building’s architecture and design were created by the German company Drei Architekten. The open-air amphitheatre-style hall can be covered in case of bad weather. Its colorful lamellas protect the audience from the sun and wind and when opened, they reveal breathtaking views of the Caucasus Mountains.

All these features make Black Sea Arena building truly unique, which is why it won the German Design Award in 2020 in the category of Best Contemporary Architecture.

The venue accommodates up to 10 000 guests and its technical capabilities allow it to host events of various types, complexity levels and musical genres with equal quality.

All areas of Black Sea Arena are fully accessible and adapted to meet diverse needs and the venue is surrounded by four free parking areas.
