Abbey Stadium, Football stadium in Cambridge, England
Abbey Stadium is a football ground in Cambridge with four distinct seating sections: the Main Stand, Habbin Stand, North Terrace, and South Stand. The venue holds roughly 9,600 spectators during football matches.
The stadium opened on August 31, 1932, and has served as home to Cambridge United since then. It has been part of the local sporting landscape for almost a century and continues to host matches regularly.
The stadium serves as a gathering place for Cambridge United supporters who come here on match days to cheer for their team. The fans create energy in the stands and form the heart of what happens on these occasions.
