Palais des sports Jean-Michel-Geoffroy
Dijon, France
The Palais des sports Jean-Michel-Geoffroy is an indoor arena in Dijon.
It opened in 1977 as an indoor hall for basketball and handball, and the wooden parquet floor remains its defining feature. A new surface was laid in the summer of 2022, replacing the one that had served the club for decades. The arena was renamed in honour of Jean-Michel Geoffroy, a former handball player who won the French championship with Cercle Sportif La Dijonnaise.
Capacity shifted after a renovation in 2020. Standing capacity for concerts once reached 5,000, before the Zénith de Dijon opened in 2005 and drew away the larger shows. The hall still hosts major events, including the EHF European League Women Final Four in 2024 and 2025, and the ProLigue finals in 2022 and 2023.
The building is owned by the City of Dijon, and the address is 17 rue Léon Mauris.
