Caja Mágica (pronounced as /es/; es||Magic Box), also known as the Manzanares Park Tennis Center,[1] is a multi-purpose stadium located in Madrid, Spain. Since 2009, it has been the home of the Madrid Open tennis tournament.
There are three courts under the one structure, and a series of retractable roofs. The seating capacity of Courts 1 and 2 would have been increased if Madrid's bid for the 2020 Summer Olympics had been successful.[2]
The main building of the complex is the Edificio Madrid Caja Mágica, a sports venue that houses three arenas. The center clay court, with a maximum capacity for 12,442 spectators, is officially named Estadio Manolo Santana. The second largest court is called Estadio Arantxa Sánchez Vicario and has 3,194 seats alongside a third smaller court for 2,730 spectators. All courts have an individual adjustable roof that can be moved into several different positions, opened or completely closed if necessary. The sports complex was designed by French architect Dominique Perrault.[3] The main materials used in the cubic-shaped building are steel, aluminum, concrete and glass. Initially budgeted for 120 million euros, the total construction bill amounted to 294 million euros.[4]
Also part of the complex is an elongated building with eleven tennis courts and an outdoor facility with sixteen courts.
It was opened by a concert of singer Lenny Kravitz on 8 May, 2009.[5]
In the 2010–11 season, it was the home stadium for the Real Madrid basketball team.[6] In January 2013, it was the Madrid venue for the 2013 World Men's Handball Championship.[7]
It can also be used for concerts and shows. It was the venue for the 2010 MTV Europe Music Awards held on 7 November of that year.[8]
On 10 May 2024, Caja Mágica was announced as the selected venue for the Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2024.[9]
