    Directions

    The Copper Box Arena is one of London's most flexible indoor venues. During the London 2012 Olympic Games, the Copper Box hosted Handball, Modern Pentathlon Fencing and Goal Ball. Home to London Lions Basketball, London GD Handball Club 7 Leyton Netball Club, it is a major venue for all indoor sports. In January 2018, England Hockey moved their Super Sixes Finals from Wembley and joined #indoorhockeyUK at this iconic venue - creating a home of Indoor Hockey in England! Our 2016 Championships were the first ever competitive Indoor Hockey activity to be held at this London 2012 Olympic Legacy venue.


    Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, in London, England, is a sporting complex in Stratford. It was built for the 2012 Summer Olympics and the Paralympics, situated to the east of the city adjacent to the Stratford City development. It contains several sporting venues including the London Stadium and London Aquatics Centre, besides Here East and East Village. The park is overlooked by the ArcelorMittal Orbit, an observation tower and Britain's largest piece of public art. It was simply called Olympic Park during the Games but was later renamed to commemorate the Diamond Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth II. The Olympic Park hosts a number of major events all year round. Some of these events will mean the park may be busier than normal and additional time needed to reach the Copper Box Arena for our events. There could be road closures in the area, as well as additional security. Forthcoming events being held on the Olympic Park can be found here. If we become aware of anything that may affect you getting to our event, we will publish further information on our website.
