Geelong Arena is a multi-use sports and entertainment venue in Geelong, Victoria. It served as the home venue for the Geelong Supercats, a men's basketball team who played in the National Basketball League (NBL) between 1982 and 1996. It currently still serves as the home venue for Geelong United Basketball's elite programs in the Women's National Basketball League (WNBL) and NBL1 South.
Since 1996, the venue has hosted a number of NBL and WNBL games. It also hosted basketball games during the 2006 Commonwealth Games.
The arena has the majority of its 2,000 seating capacity on the broadcast side of the court with two smaller sections at each end plus two levels of corporate boxes on the opposite to the broadcast side. The venue has four courts.
In 2023, Geelong United Basketball revealed plans to bid for management rights of Geelong Arena.
