'Lentpark' ice and aquatic arena in Cologne will be the fifth stop of the two-day 'IAKS Facility Tour - Pools' from 26-27 October 2025. The facility tour will take place in the run-up to the aquanale trade fair - the No. 1 meeting place for the international swimming pool and wellness industry. Fostering innovations for a conscious lifestyle centred around health, wellness and exercise, the aquanale trade fair will take place in Cologne, Germany from 28-31 October 2025.
Dive deep into 'Lentpark'. Here's why:
The ice and swimming stadium Lentpark accommodates two ice rinks, an indoor swimming centre with a variety of pools, a sauna, an outdoor natural water swimming pond and a restaurant. An elevated ice skating track runs as a round circuit through every part of the building providing exciting views inside and outside. An intelligent cross-linking of the building services allows for the seemingly contradictory climatic requirements of an ice and swimming facility to operate in an energy-efficient manner.
