Ochilview Park is a football stadium in Stenhousemuir, Scotland, with 3,746 seats distributed across a main stand and a covered terrace behind one goal. The stadium features artificial grass and accommodates both home and away supporters.
The stadium opened in 1890 and made history by hosting Scotland's first floodlit match against Hibernian in 1951. This event marked a turning point in how Scottish football clubs used artificial lighting.
The Norway Stand was built during the 1996-97 season and named after Norwegian supporters of Stenhousemuir Football Club who developed a connection with the team. This partnership shows how football creates bonds across borders.
