Pavelló Girona-Fontajau is an indoor arena in Girona, Catalonia, northern Spain, that holds 5,500 people. It is primarily used for basketball and is the home arena of Uni Girona CB and Bàsquet Girona.
The building was built between 1991 and 1993, designed by the architects Esteve Bonell and Josep M. Gil. It is structured in two levels, one for the public (the high level) and another, of which use is restricted to the sportsmen (the low level), with separate entries.
The arena was inaugurated on September 4, 1993. Valvi Girona won in an exhibition game against Greek club PAOK, with the presence of NBA legend Moses Malone as a guest.
Besides basketball, it is used also for other sports like Indoor motorcycle trials and tennis matches.
