Arena usually hosts the official CSD (Berlin gay pride) party. In 2007 there were very few people there, so it was rubbish. In the summer during the day, they've got a funky bar, located by the river Spree, the pool is a huge box in the Spree and cool people go there. We arrived about 11 in the morning. Its a bit cramped and when we left at 3pm it was towel to towel on the sand. It also features MS Hoppetosse, a ship by the pool.Good place to go to view the talent and have a quiet drink. Best visited on a sunny day in the week.
Arena is a huge, varied complex in a wonderful location by the river. On SUnday afternoons in the Summer they also have a funky straight outdoor bar and party.
