outdoor arena

Uncovered performance space

An outdoor arena is a large open-air venue designed for spectators to watch events—sports, concerts, rodeos, or other performances.

Unlike indoor arenas, outdoor arenas lack a roof, leaving participants and audiences exposed to weather.

The term covers everything from ancient amphitheaters to modern stadiums: The outdoor arena holds forty thousand for football games.
