Zvezda, Football stadium in Perm, Russia
Zvezda Stadium is a football venue in Perm, Russia, with seating for about 15,000 people. It has four stands, a field with artificial turf, and an electronic scoreboard.
The stadium opened in 1969 and was originally called Lenin Komsomol Stadium. It was renamed Zvezda in 1992, and in 2009 it received a UEFA certificate that allowed it to host international matches.
The east stand has a section named after Zahari Sirakov, a player who spent many years at the club. The seats in that stand once spelled out the name of the team, and the lettering has changed over time to reflect the clubs playing there.
Only the west stand is currently open to visitors, so access is limited to that side. It is best to check which sectors are open before planning your visit.
The stadium's first Europa League match was played in 2009 and ended with a 1-0 win for the home team. The only goal came from Martin Kushev.
