Ano Liosia Olympic Hall

Ano Liossia Olympic Hall was the host to judo and wrestling at the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens, Greece. The arena seats up to 9,000, but only had a capacity of 6,000 for the Olympics. The hall is situated in Ano Liosia, a suburb northwest of central Athens.

After the Olympics, the venue became the site of various television productions, including the Greek version of the reality show "So You Think You Can Dance."
