The 2016 Euroleague Final Four was the concluding Euroleague Final Four tournament of the 2015–16 Euroleague season, the 59th season of Europe's premier club basketball tournament, and the 16th season since it is organised by Euroleague Basketball. The Final Four was played at the Mercedes-Benz Arena in Berlin, Germany, on May 2016.[1]

Venue

On May 11, 2015, Euroleague Basketball announced that the 2016 Final Four would be played at the Mercedes-Benz Arena in Berlin. With a capacity of 14,500 people, it is home to the Alba Berlin basketball team, and is used for ice hockey, basketball and handball matches as well as concerts. The surrounding area will be filled with various entertainment venues including a cinema, a casino, a hotel and various bars and restaurants. The arena previously hosted the 2009 Euroleague Final Four. The arena was one of the most prominent elements of the Mediaspree urban redevelopment project, quickly gaining emblematic status in the debates surrounding the project's impact.

The LED construction grid on the facade of the arena will be equipped with more than 300,000 LED clusters on a 12 m (39 ft) high and approximately 120 m (390 ft) wide section of the semicircular 105° glass facade with a total area of more than 1,440 m2 (15,500 sq ft). Light pixels, consisting of two groups of 19 LEDs (colour palette: 16.7 million RGB colours) will be attached to the vertical bracing of the facade. The vertical distances are 0.20 m (7.9 in) and the horizontal distances between the axes are planned to be 0.90 m (2 ft 11 in).
