I've watched a cement pad be jackhammered out and repoured in a week's time for a large industrial building. This wouldn't be much different.
Jackhammer the floor to remove the old concrete, remove/clean up the pieces, put footings in place for the new pad area, pour the floor, couple days to cure.
The boards already have to be removed along with some of the seats so that's a huge advantage. The surrounding area of the cement pad can be cleared so that when the removal/repour is done, it has nothing in its way.
The pipes (which I haven't seen in awhile so I can't 100% recall) should be between a foundation floor and the arena floor. So the arena floor has to come out to replace the pipes.
