Our comment from FitFit Ireland about MTU Arena:

MTU Arena in Cork, Ireland, is an excellent facility that has quickly become a favored destination for sports enthusiasts and families alike. Visitors rave about its modern and spacious design, well-maintained indoor courts for basketball and volleyball, as well as a clean and comfortable gym. The arena, which opened in 2023, boasts top-notch amenities including a large gym, multiple studios, and a versatile hall that can accommodate a wide range of events.

Many have highlighted the supportive and friendly staff who are always eager to help, making it a welcoming environment for both students and community members. Parking is readily available, especially during events, adding to the ease of access for visitors.

While most reviews are positive, a few users have mentioned that the café options are limited, particularly during crowded times, and that the parking can be challenging without a card. Additionally, some have noted that the sound quality in the arena could use improvement, as it tends to reverberate due to the building's design.

Overall, MTU Arena stands out for its great facilities, affordable rates, and a wide array of activities, making it an ideal place for anyone looking to engage in sports or community events.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic arena.Went to see Ballincollig v UCC Blue Demons basketball game.First time visiting & phoned the day before to get a heads up from the very helpful staff.Plenty of parking especially for a big game plus lots of other activities going on around the campus.Staff to help guide first timers like us,quickly through ticket desk.Impressive arena with two stands on one side of the court.Seats are comfortable but not great legroom which you feel after the game.Very skillful & exciting game,definitely coming back for more basketball.Quick exit from the carpark as well. Thank you MTU Arena for a great experience.

Positive experience: You couldn't help but be impressed by MTU's relatively new Arena. The seating felt almost like it had not been sat on and the facilities all had that "just out of the packet" feel. This €22 million state-of-the-art multi-purpose building opened only in 2023. It includes a 1,340m2 hall, two studios, a café and a 600 m2 gym. The arena is open seven days a week, and membership of the gym is open to all. I attended as part of a dance competition and tye floor space was evident. However the facility caters for a multitude of other events during the year such as sports, societies, conferring ceremonies, careers fairs, and examinations. The venue is also be available for hire and the main hall of the Arena can accommodate 1,200 people seated, which is pretty impressive. The sound is poor and tends to reverberate a lot off the box like concrete structure. Enjoyable place to visit with parking close by.

Positive experience: I have only been to the gym. The location is close to the student accommodation and the university. The premises is wheelchair accessible. There is wheelchair accessible parking. Their change rooms and other facilities are accessible as well. The team is friendly and helpful. They greet you with smiles and an eagerness to make sure you get what you need. There is a student rate. There are a number of courts in the back. So, you can play a variety of sports. Everything is secure and well lite. So, you are safe. #accessible #wheelchairaccessible #gym #studentgym #university #healthandfitness
