Centre intercommunal de glace de Malley (abbreviation CIG de Malley or CIGM) was an indoor arena located in Lausanne, Switzerland. It was primarily used for ice hockey, and was the home arena of the HC Lausanne from 1984 to 2017. CIG de Malley opened in 1984 and had a capacity of 9,000 people,[1] although because most of the arena consisted of terraces a maximum of 12,000 people could attend the games.[2]
The arena hosted the European champions cup final on April 2, 1987, in which Tracer Milano prevailed over Maccabi Tel Aviv 71-69[3][4] in front of 10,500 spectators.[4] Other important basketball matches hosted at the Malley include the 1994[5] and 2000 Saporta Cup finals.[6]
The CIGM hosted the 1997 World Artistic Gymnastics Championships as well as the 1990 and 2008 European Men's Artistic Gymnastics Championships.
