Gernot Langes Stadion, Football stadium in Wattens, Austria.
Gernot Langes Stadion sits at the western edge of Wattens and forms part of a larger sports complex that includes an athletics facility, swimming center, and indoor sports halls. The venue holds around 5,500 seats and serves mainly as a football ground for the home team.
The stadium opened in 1959 as Alpenstadion and was renamed in 2014 to honor Gernot Langes and the Swarovski family's support of local sports. The name change reflects the long connection between the venue and athletic development in the region.
The facility serves as home ground for WSG Swarovski Wattens - Tirol II and brings together football fans from the surrounding area. Match days fill the stands with supporters who shape the region's sporting life and community spirit.
The stadium is located at Dr. Karl Stainer Straße 30 and sits within an accessible sports complex that is easy to reach. Arriving early on match days helps secure good viewing spots, especially when local interest is high.
The grounds were formerly known as Alpenstadion, and its design still shows traces of that earlier identity in the layout. The main grandstand on the west side and the open terrace on the east side offer different viewing experiences for spectators.
