Stora Valla

Stora Valla is a football stadium in central Degerfors with a natural grass pitch measuring 105 by 67 meters. It holds approximately 12500 spectators and offers viewing areas around the playing field.

The stadium opened in 1938 and became home to Degerfors IF, growing into a major local sports venue. Its largest crowds came in the early 1960s when matches drew thousands of supporters.

The venue serves as a central gathering place for the local community throughout the football season, bringing residents together around their team. It reflects how important the sport is to daily life in this part of Sweden.

The venue has viewing areas positioned close to the playing field for direct sight lines to all the action. Basic refreshments and water are available, and the site operates with cashless payment systems.

What makes this venue special is that the spectators sit directly near the playing field without a running track separating them. This closeness creates an immediate connection between fans and players during matches.
