However, since they switch the name to DÔME in March 2019, the Arena is also used for a wide range of activities such as conferences, seminaire, enterprise dinner and much more.

 

Originally designed as an indoor tennis court for a Nick Bollettieri Tennis Academy; the hall became too small, especially for the requirements of the Spirou Charleroi basketball team and for this reason the arena was expanded in 2002. The concrete dome was built over the existing building, the game operation was not affected.

Spiroudome opened in 2002. The arena hosted the annual ULEB Cup Finals (later re-named to EuroCup Finals) from 2004 to 2008. It has been used as the long-time home arena of the Belgian professional basketball club, Spirou Charleroi.

It has hosted various Fed Cup and Davis Cup ties, among them the 2006 Fed Cup Final.
