Hage Geingob Rugby Stadium

Hage Geingob Rugby Stadium, Rugby stadium in Windhoek, Namibia

The Hage Geingob Stadium is a rugby ground in the Olympia suburb of southern Windhoek, next to the Independence Stadium. It is Namibia's largest rugby stadium and one of the country's three national stadiums, the only one built for rugby, with a capacity of 10,000. The Namibia Rugby Union owns and operates it.

The stadium was renovated in 1991 and again in 2024. Until 25 August 2011 it was the largest privately owned stadium in the country, held by the Namibia Rugby Union, which transferred it to the state because of financial problems; the state now covers its upkeep. A further renovation was announced for April 2025 to allow CAF and FIFA matches.

The ground carries the name of Hage Geingob, Namibia's third president, who held office from 2015 until his death in 2024. The Namibia Rugby Union owns and runs it, and all matches of the national rugby union team are played here. The team competes in the Africa Cup, while the Welwitschias play in the Rugby Challenge.

The stadium sits in the Olympia suburb in southern Windhoek, directly beside the Independence Stadium. It is owned and operated by the Namibia Rugby Union, with a planned transfer to the Ministry of Sport, Youth and National Service. A major renovation was announced for April 2025 to allow CAF and FIFA matches.

The stadium was Namibia's largest privately owned sports ground until 25 August 2011, when the financially troubled Namibia Rugby Union transferred it to the state, which now covers upkeep. A transfer to the Ministry of Sport, Youth and National Service is planned.
