The Pan American Arena is a twin rink ice hockey and skating arena located in downtown Indianapolis, Indiana. The arena is part of the broader Pan American Plaza, which was built in commemoration of the 1987 Pan American Games held in Indianapolis.
Pan American Arena is run by the Indiana/World Skating Academy and has one standard 85-foot by 200-foot ice rink (NHL size) and one 100' by 200' ice rink (Olympic Games size). These high quality rinks, coupled with a research center devoted to testing skaters' athletic prowess, has established Pan American Arena as a primary training site for striving young hockey players and figure skaters.
The arena was home to the Indianapolis Inferno of the Great Lakes Junior Hockey League from 2010 to 2012 and the Indiana Ice of the United States Hockey League.
