Foolad Khuzestan Stadium, Modern football stadium in Ahvaz, Iran
Foolad Khuzestan Stadium is a modern football venue in Ahvaz built to hold around 30,000 spectators on a natural grass field. An overhead structure provides shade coverage, and powerful floodlights allow evening matches to take place.
The venue opened in 2018 and marked a turning point for football infrastructure in Khuzestan Province. The team that plays here has built a strong track record since the stadium's completion.
The stadium sits at the heart of local football culture and reflects how deeply the sport connects to the region's working-class identity. Match days here bring together families and neighbors who share a strong passion for the game and their team.
The stadium layout includes multiple separate entrances for different audience groups, making arrival and circulation straightforward. It helps to arrive early so you have time to find your way around and settle into your spot comfortably.
Unlike many Iranian stadiums, this building has no running track around the field, which brings spectators much closer to the action. The lights are built into the roof edges rather than standing on separate poles, giving the structure a cleaner appearance.
