N.V. Parysheva Ice Palace

Standing at 1st microdistrict 1A, building 7 in the Zaozyorny residential district, the N.V. Parysheva Ice Palace is a sports venue in Kurgan. It opened its doors on September 6, 2001, a date fixed by the completion of the first phase of construction initiated by Nikolai Vasilyevich Paryshev. As the director of the steel plant JSC Kurganstalmost, Paryshev served as the primary developer.

The facility was originally known as the Mostovik Ice Palace, a name it carried until September 14, 2010, when it was officially renamed in Paryshev’s honor. The structure itself is substantial, covering a territory of 2.94 hectares with a total building area of 6,183 square meters. Inside, the ice surface is artificial, maintained year-round by a dedicated compressor station and a reverse osmosis water filtration system. The ceiling height reaches 12 meters above the 2,500 spectators who can fill the stands.

Today, the arena serves as the home for HC Zauralye, which competes in the Supreme Hockey League (VHL), and HC Junior, a team in the Junior Hockey League (MHL). Youth development is also central to the site’s function, with DYuSSh No. 6 utilizing the rink for local sports education. Beyond hockey, the venue doubles as a concert hall; on May 3, 2019, it hosted performances by Sergey Lazarev and the group Ruki Vverkh!. The official presence of the venue is maintained through its website, https://45led.ru.
