Loro Boriçi Stadium, multi-purpose stadium in Shkodër, Albania

Loro Boriçi Stadium is an all-seater football ground in Shkodër, rebuilt between 2015 and 2016 with a capacity of 16,022. The pitch is surrounded by a running track, and on the far side a row of tiered seating is divided into three sections painted in red and blue patterns. A tall greyish-white residential building rises above the central seating, while the main stand has a dark-panelled wall, four rows of translucent panels, and a glass-fronted entrance pavilion.

The stadium was built in 1950 and opened in 1952 as Vojo Kushi Stadium, named after an Albanian war hero. The name changed to Loro Boriçi in 1990 to honor an outstanding football player and coach from the city.

The stadium is named after Loro Boriçi, born in Shkodër in 1922, who won 23 caps for Albania and played in Italy's Serie A for Roma and Lazio. He later coached the Albanian side that beat West Germany in the 1967 match known as the "Disgrace of Tirana". The ground has been the home of KS Vllaznia since it opened.

The stadium is an all-seater rebuilt between 2015 and 2016, so every spectator has a numbered seat rather than a terrace place. It stands in Shkodër and is the home ground of KS Vllaznia; the national team has also played qualifiers here, including Albania's 3–1 win over Russia on 29 March 2003. Check which stand your ticket names before entering, since the seating is divided into separate blocks.

Kosovo played its first official World Cup qualifiers at Loro Boriçi because the Adem Jashari Stadium in Mitrovica and the Fadil Vokrri Stadium in Pristina were being rebuilt. The first of these, against Croatia on 6 October 2016, ended 0-6, Kosovo's heaviest defeat.
