The Sapporo Mikaho Gymnasium (札幌市美香保体育館, Sapporo-shi Mikaho Taiikukan) is an indoor sporting arena in Higashi-ku, Sapporo, Hokkaido, Japan.
It was built in October 1970, and has an area of 6,267 m2 in total. Mikaho Gymnasium was one of the venues for figure skating at the 11th Winter Olympic Games held in Sapporo in February 1972.
The gym is currently used as a skating rink in winter (for figure skating, leisure skating and curling), and as a gym in the summer months. After the Olympics, it was shortly used as a heated swimming pool in the summer.
It is located next to three baseball diamonds, and four tennis courts.
