The underlying concept behind “XEBIO Arena Sendai” is to offer people a unique sports, concert, and event **venue** never before seen in Japan that maximizes the attractions of "arena sports" and "entertainment."
Should venue be changed to space?
Thank you for your help.

why change to space?
venue is the best word here to collocate with the 3 events. We would not say sports space or concert space...

: The asker needs an explanation of the word. A venue is a place where an event takes place.

: Another word for it is 'facility'.// Yes, you're right, so venue is really the best term here.

Thank you! But facility would only be good with "sports". (I'd never use concert/event facility.)

This ST is about the attraction of sports "that are played in an arena", not about the venue itself (the arena) being attractive.
