Yoyogi National Gymnasium, officially Yoyogi National Stadium (Japanese: 国立代々木競技場, Hepburn: Kokuritsu Yoyogi Kyōgi-jō) is an indoor arena located at Yoyogi Park in Shibuya, Tokyo, Japan, which is famous for its suspension roof design.

It was designed by Kenzo Tange and built between 1961 and 1964 to be the aquatics center during the 1964 Summer Olympics, with the annex used for basketball events. It was also the venue for the handball competition at the 2020 Summer Olympics.[3] The design inspired Frei Otto's arena designs for the Olympic Stadium in Munich.
The arena holds 13,291 people (9,079 stand seats, 4,124 arena seats and 88 "royal box" seats) and is now primarily used for ice hockey, futsal, basketball and volleyball.[citation needed]
The NHK studios are adjacent to the arena along the edge of Yoyogi Park. Therefore, images of the arena are regularly featured at the end of NHK Newsline broadcasts.[citation needed]
