Sydney Football Stadium II, Multi-purpose sports venue in Moore Park, Sydney, Australia
Description
The complex sits beside green spaces and sports facilities in Moore Park and provides seating for more than 40,000 spectators across multiple tiers. Certain sections of the upper level can be reconfigured between fixed seats and standing areas with rails, depending on the type of event.
History
Construction began in April 2020 as a replacement for an older stadium that stood on the same site from 1988 to 2018. The new facility was completed and opened for sports fixtures and concerts to meet the needs of modern audiences.
Culture
Three local teams call this ground their home, including rugby and football clubs from Sydney and New South Wales. Match days bring supporters from across the city to this corner of Moore Park, where crowds gather on walkways and open spaces before and after events.
Practical
Access is through several entry points around the building, and visitor pathways lead to different tiers and service areas. Large events create crowds before entry and after the finish, so arriving a bit earlier or waiting longer can help.
Did you know?
In July 2023, more than 40,000 spectators attended a women's football match between Germany and Colombia, setting the current attendance record for the stadium. This match showed that the new building can host events beyond the regular home fixtures of the resident clubs.
