Pallati i Sporteve "Shani Nushi"

Gjakova, XK

The Shani Nushi Sports Hall sits at Rruga Tirana in Gjakova. The hall is the home ground for KB Vëllaznimi in basketball and KH Vëllaznimi in handball. It also hosts volleyball matches, which means the floor is likely parquet, though the exact material is not explicitly detailed in the available sources. The capacity is a matter of debate, cited variously as 1,000, 2,500, or 3,500 spectators depending on the source. A handball match in 2015 drew just 260 people, while a nearby open-air poetry event gathered about 3,000, but that was outside the hall.

Its most significant sporting moment came in 2015 when it hosted Group C and Group D matches of the IHF Emerging Nations Championship. Teams from Moldova, Malta, China, Ireland, Latvia, Uruguay, Bulgaria, and Andorra played out their games within these walls. It has also hosted quarter-final and semi-final stages of the Kosovo Basketball Cup, including clashes like KB Vëllaznimi against Golden Eagle Ylli.

Beyond sport, the venue has held cultural events, such as a concert by the band Tito & Tarantula. The original construction year is not found in the available sources, but it is noted that the hall was "ruined" in the context of 2012 municipal revenues, suggesting it existed long before those modern renovations. No former names for the venue were found; it has consistently been referred to as the Shani Nushi Sports Hall in recent records.
