Yumenoshima Stadium, Sports stadium in Kōtō Ward, Tokyo, Japan.
Yumenoshima Stadium is a sports facility on an artificial island in Tokyo Bay with a capacity for 5,000 spectators. The structure provides approximately 2,350 seats and additional standing room on the grass area for various sporting events and training activities.
The stadium sits on Yumenoshima, an artificial island that served as a landfill from 1957 to 1967 before being transformed into a recreation area and later a sports venue. This transformation turned the site into an example of urban renewal in Tokyo's metropolitan area.
The stadium serves as home ground for FC Tokyo U-23 and has become an important venue for local sporting competitions. Visitors can watch training sessions on weekends and experience the rhythm of an active sports facility in the neighborhood.
Access to the facility requires advance registration through a lottery system for reservations up to 12 months ahead. Regular visitors can access the grounds on Wednesdays and select weekends to watch training sessions.
The stadium played a central role in the 2020 Tokyo Olympics and Paralympics as the main venue for archery competitions. This international significance put the location on the world sports map.
