Milan knows “Pavilion 3” by the name of “Palazzo dello sport” or “Palazzo delle scintille”. Built in 1923 based on a design by the architect Paolo Vietti Violi, a well-known designer of sports facilities, it was conceived to host large indoor sporting events. Over the years it has also been used as a venue for shows and as an exhibition pavilion for the Milan Trade Fair.
