History
Palasport Giacomo Del Mauro originally had a 3,600-seating capacity. It was expanded to a 5,300-seating capacity in 2008, specifically in order to meet the minimum capacity requirements for EuroLeague games, which require an arena of at least 5,000 seats. In 2008, the arena's usage rights were also entrusted to Air Avellino, for a period of ten years.[1]
Volleyball team Volley Avellino, also uses it as their home arena.
