The Altrincham Ice Dome is an approximately 2,500-capacity (2,104 seats, and up to 500 standing) ice rink in Altrincham (near Manchester), UK that is currently under construction. The Ice Dome will host the home matches of the Manchester Phoenix ice hockey club.
The Ice Dome is a prefabricated structure constructed in Finland. Assembly of the building began in August 2006. The Altrincham Ice Dome was due to open on 24th September 2006 when the Manchester Phoenix were scheduled to play host to the Sheffield Steelers in their opening home game. This date has now been put back to the 28th January 2007.
The rink has a life expectancy of 15 years, but is expected to be replaced in 5 years time by a larger permanent facility on land adjacent to the current build. The building is costing around £2.5m.

I'm going to go out on a limb here and guess a dome made of ice?

Similar to an igloo, but formed naturally, usually by water running under or through thick ice such as in a glacier. They are a hazard to hikers, as the they cannot be easily seen, and the top may become thin enough to collapse under the weight of someone crossing one accidentally
