Jinzhou Stadium, Football stadium in Jinzhou District, Dalian, China.
Jinzhou Stadium is a multi-purpose sports venue in the Jinzhou District of Dalian, with seating for around 30,000 spectators. It has dedicated areas for teams, media, and broadcast operations.
The stadium was built in 1997 on the site of an earlier ground from 1958. Shortly after opening, it hosted FIFA World Cup qualification matches for the 1998 tournament.
The venue serves as a central gathering point for regional football supporters and hosts matches for several professional teams. It draws spectators from across the city who come to experience the local sports scene.
The stadium is at No. 1 Tiyu Road, Guangzhong Subdistrict, Jinzhou District, on a site covering 79,000 square metres. It can be reached by public transport or by car. On match days, several entrances take visitors into different parts of the ground, so arriving early helps.
The pitch was long nicknamed the "vegetable patch" for its soft, uneven grass and poor drainage. A renovation worth ¥4 million in 2020, ahead of Dalian hosting Chinese Super League Group A, greatly improved the surface.
