Maccabi Tel Aviv moves Euroleague home games to Limassol

The Euroleague has officially approved the Spyros Kyprianou arena in Limassol, Cyprus, as the home venue for Maccabi Tel Aviv for the remainder of the 2026-27 season. This decision, announced on November 4, 2026, aims to ensure the safety of players and fans due to the ongoing security situation in Israel. The venue, which holds 8,000 spectators and previously hosted matches for Eurobasket 2025, will begin hosting the team starting with the 11th round of the regular season, featuring a derby against Hapoel Tel Aviv, coached by Demetris Itoudis.

Following the October 7, 2023, attacks, Maccabi had been playing its home games in Belgrade, Serbia, for the past three years. The formal request to move to Cyprus was submitted to President Nikos Christodoulides on October 22. Euroleague officials stated they will continue to monitor regional developments and will inform the public if conditions normalize. Ticket sales for the initial four matches at the new venue began on November 6 via the platform Sold Out Tickets in collaboration with PNEUMA Promotions.
