You are speaking of French, right? There are two words in French ("arène"
and "stade") which seem close to arena and stadium. But IIUC they have
completely different meanings in the two languages. In English, it seems
the difference is more about indoor versus outdoors. In French, the
difference is more about the age of the structure, "arène" would better
translate to bullring. The risk here is that French (other languages may
have the same issue) users would mistakenly translate "arène" to arena.
Maybe the label could be changed to "indoor arena" or "arena (indoor)"
