Indoor Football and Athletics arena, Kazan

The Indoor Football and Athletics Arena is a sports complex in the heart of Kazan. Designed by Soviet architect V. E. Portyankin and built in 1967, it serves as the training base for the Republic of Tatarstan’s athletics team and hosts competitions in summer sports. The spectator stands accommodate approximately 1,100 people. The arena features modern equipment and meets international standards.

The project focused on the venue’s daily operations. Alongside hosting competitions, the complex needed to manage visitor access according to its activity schedule and automate ticket and membership sales for paid sports classes.

Infomatika was responsible for the following tasks:

• Organize sports complex operations according to its activity schedule.
• Automate visitor access control.
• Enable barcode and contactless card validation at entrances.
• Automate ticket and membership sales for paid sports classes.
• Set up cashier and administrator workstations.
