Ghazi Stadium

Ghazi Stadium, Multi-purpose stadium in southeast Kabul, Afghanistan.

Ghazi Stadium is a rectangular grass football pitch ringed by a reddish-brown running track in southeast Kabul, across from Chaman-e-Hozori and the Eidgah Mosque. Tiered concrete seating, light grey and partly covered by a grandstand with a flat reddish-brown roof on thin pillars, surrounds the field; a low wall with a red metal upper structure and a tall fence separate seats from the pitch. Capacity is 25,000.

The stadium was built in 1923 on orders from King Amanullah Khan following Afghanistan's independence from British rule through a treaty agreement. Its construction marked a moment of renewed national pride in the aftermath of conflict.

The name Ghazi, meaning hero, honours King Amanullah Khan for the 1919 treaty that ended British control. The stadium sits across from Chaman-e-Hozori and the Eidgah Mosque, near the Afghanistan National Olympic Committee and the Kabul International Cricket Stadium. Its grounds have also trained the national women's boxing team, filmed in The Boxing Girls of Kabul.

The stadium sits southeast of Shahr-e Naw, across from Chaman-e-Hozori and the Eidgah Mosque, with the Afghanistan National Olympic Committee and the Afghanistan Football Federation Stadium nearby. It is used mainly for local football training and matches, and 52 sports federations are active in Kabul's sports stadium complex. The stands are tiered concrete seating, mostly uncovered apart from one long covered grandstand with a reddish-brown flat roof on thin pillars.

The venue hosted a performance by jazz musician Duke Ellington in 1963 during a cultural tour through Asia. That concert remains a rare chapter in the country's cultural history and shows the openness to international artists that existed at that time.
