Teladan Stadium

Teladan Stadium is a sports facility in Medan with a capacity of around 20,000 seats and a grass playing surface. Covered grandstands on both sides of the field provide shelter for spectators watching events.

Construction of the stadium started in 1951 and finished in 1953, built specifically to host Indonesia's third National Sports Week that year. The facility emerged as part of the country's post-independence effort to develop modern sports infrastructure.

The stadium's exterior walls feature ant motifs that represent unity and cooperation among people. These symbols reflect values important to the founding clubs of PSMS Medan.

The stadium sits on Jalan Stadion in central Medan and is easily accessible by public transport. Visitors should check current access rules before attending events, as conditions may change depending on what is happening.

Architect Liem Bwan Tjie, who also designed the well-known Ikada Stadium in Jakarta, created this facility with distinctive design elements from the 1950s. His work blends practical design with local architectural details from that era.
