Blackburn Arena is an Olympic size ice arena in Blackburn, Lancashire, and the home of Blackburn Hawks ice hockey club. The Arena, which opened in 1991, holds 3,200 people and has an ice pad of 60 metres by 30 metres.

The Arena is owned by Peel Holdings after the original owners, Blackburn Council, sold it. Planning permission was granted at the time of building for an extra 1000 or so seats at the back of the Arena. It was built to coincide with Manchester's 1996 Olympic bid, with the possibility of boxing contests being held there. The rock band Status Quo played a concert at the arena in 1992.

The Arena is open seven days a week for public iceskating sessions. It also offers a café and Hockey shop.
