Red Hall (Slovene: Rdeča dvorana) is a sports facility arena in Velenje, Slovenia. It is a home arena of handball club Gorenje Velenje. The venue can accommodate 2,500 spectators.
The construction of the venue began on 24 August 1974 and was finished in late 1975. The Red Hall had its unofficial opening on 11 October 1975. At first, it was built to host different kinds of fairs, and not sports events.
