The Pavelló de la Mar Bella

The Olympic badminton competition was
held at the new Pavelló de la Mar Bella in
Poblenou, in the Parc de Mar Area. This
is a multi-purpose hall, suitable for all
manner of public events; in addition to the
multi-purpose sports areas and the
services for the adjacent athletics track,
the building is in the future to house the
Poblenou library and historical archive.

The Pavelló de la Mar Bella was opened
in May 1992 for the Ciutat de Barcelona
badminton trophy, held to test the facility
before the Games and to provide the
organisation with experience.
