Palace of Sports and Youth named after Ali Aliyev

The Palace of Sports and Youth stands in Kaspiysk. The building opened in 2010, the date confirmed by the first Ali Aliyev memorial wrestling tournament held on the opening day. The venue was designed by Bulgarian architect Georgi Stoilov, who controlled the construction process directly and made structural changes while the building was going up. The ceremonial opening was May 22, 2010, though the building was completed in 2011 according to one source.

Capacity shifted over time. The original 5,000 seats could expand to 6,000, but a renovation completed around 2018 brought the number to 5,500. By 2024, the figure sits back at 5,000. The arena hosts tournaments in wrestling, boxing, Greco-Roman wrestling, karate, women's wrestling, and volleyball. VK Dagestan, a volleyball club, calls it home. No former names are recorded for the venue.

ds-aliev.ru is the official website. The address is Prospekt Akulinicheva, 19, confirmed by KASSIR.RU, Yandex Maps, and Kuban-Museum.ru. Kaspiysk was founded in 1932 as 'Dvigatelstroy' before becoming a city in 1947. The surface type is natural (grass), though this refers to the adjacent Anji Arena outdoor stadium, not the indoor arena. The venue is part of the Makhachkala-Kaspiysk agglomeration.
