Nuova Valascia

The Nuova Valascia is an ice hockey arena under construction in Ambrì, Ticino, Switzerland. It is located only a few feet away from the former Valascia. The opening is planned for August 2021.
The arena will serve as the home for HC Ambrì-Piotta of the National League (NL) and will seat up to 7,000 spectators for hockey games.
==Background==
HC Ambrì-Piotta held the groundbreaking ceremony in December 2018 and construction officially began in April 2019, 60 years after the former Valascia opened. Construction for the arena had been postponed for two consecutive years as plans were to start in early 2017. The SIHF had been rushing Ambri-Piotta to begin building a new arena to let them compete in the National League as the old arena no longer met security regulations and was located in a potential avalanche path.
==Naming==
As of now, no sponsorship deal for naming rights has been signed.
