The Olympia A.C. was a Philadelphia venue, that held club fights at two different locations in South Philadelphia:

  • at Broad & Bainbridge (1912-22)
  • at 2nd & Christian (1926-27)
  • at Broad & Bainbridge (1934-45) (capacity 2,200)

Al Nash was the promoter during the 1926-27 run, while Jimmy Toppi Sr. was associated with most of the promotion of programs at Olympia A.C. from 1934-to-1945. Max Hoff also promoted here in 1936, with Frank Palumbo handling all the 1937 promotions, after Toppi temporarily stepped away from promotion.
