company's account by the City of Split in June 2022, in the amount of tens of millions of kunas due to unpaid utility fees and other charges.

The Spaladium Arena received electricity from City of Split who stepped in with a loan and the debt to HEP of 125 thousand kuna was settled.

The return of electricity is very significant because it allowed the performances of the bands Guns & Roses and The Cult which took place in July 2012, which had already been called into question.

However, despite the return of electricity, the problems are far from being solved, and that is the blockade of the Sportski Grad TPN by the creditor of the Arena construction project, Erste Bank from Vienna.

Prime Minister Zoran Milanović did not responded to the letter from Split Mayor Željko Kerum, who requested an urgent meeting due to the problems with the Arena.

The leaders of the Spaladium Arena have sent a letter to Mayor Željko Kerum and his deputy Juro Šundov in which they are asking the city administration to urgently pay them at least part of the debt incurred due to non-payment of the monthly rent of the hall, which, let us recall, is the City's obligation under the signed contract on a public-private partnership with a consortium of three companies: "Konstruktor inženjering", "Dalekovod" and the Croatian Institute of Civil Engineering.

The Arena also informed the Banovina that the debt to suppliers who maintain the technical integrity of the huge hall has risen to almost 500 thousand kuna.

At the end of the letter, the director of the company "Sportski grad TPN" tells Mayor Kerum and his deputy Šundov that he will "close the Arena at the beginning of September due to a technical malfunction" if the debts are not paid soon.
