Red Hall (Slovene: Rdeča dvorana) is a sports facility arena in Velenje, Slovenia. It is a home arena of handball club Gorenje Velenje. Its capacities are between 1,500 and 2,500 seats.
Red Hall construction began on 24 August 1974 and was finished in late 1975. Hall had its unofficial opening on 11 October 1975, and an interesting fact to mention is, that its capacity was 4,000 seats but attendance exceeded to 6,000 people on that day. At first it was built to host different kinds of fairs and not sports events. However the opinion was that the object is very well constructed and offers excellent conditions to host sports events. It has been for a long time a home venue for ŽRK Velenje.
After some modifications to the object government of RS Slovenia established (25 May 1992) the public company Sports and Recreation Center Red Hall (Športno-rekreativni center Rdeča dvorana. Sports facility was renovated few times in its history (1989, 1994, 1998 and 2004).
Red Hall is a home arena of Gorenje Velenje (men's handball club) and RK Velenje (women's handball club).
