English term or phrase: venue
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.

Explanation:
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...

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

  -> Thanks:-) I think they know what it means?
agree  Tina Vonhof (X): 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.)
