St. Jakobshalle
According to Bob Dylan's biography Chronicles: Volume One, he decided after a concert at St. Jakobshalle to go on the Never Ending Tour.In May 2025, the arena will host the Eurovision Song Contest following Nemo's win at the previous year's event with "The Code".[3] In January 2015, the Grand Council of Basel-Stadt approved a loan of CHF 105 million for the renovation and modernisation of the hall, with 89 votes in favor and one abstention.[4] The complex also houses five smaller halls with variable capacity, a business center, VIP area, four gymnasiums and a 25-meter swimming pool.After the success of the Swiss tennis player and Basel native Roger Federer, the Basel sports director had announced the arena was to be renamed the 'Roger Federer Arena' following the current renovation,[5] but this was blocked in a local council vote.
