Stade Municipal, Multi-use stadium in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso.
Stade Municipal is a multi-use sports facility in Ouagadougou with a grass playing field and spectator seating areas. The complex is designed to accommodate various sporting events and competitions throughout the year.
The stadium is also known as Stade Dr Issoufou Joseph Conombo, named after a Burkinabè physician and politician. The sources record no construction date or early history, so its origins remain undocumented; it now serves as the home ground of Santos Football Club.
The venue serves as home ground for local football clubs and draws fans from across the city to gather and support their teams. It functions as a social meeting point where residents come together for sporting occasions.
The stadium stands in Ouagadougou, in Kadiogo Province, and holds 25,000 spectators. It is used mainly for football, so match days are when the stands fill; check the fixture of Santos FC before planning a visit. The sources give no details on transport or access.
The stadium's official name honours Dr Issoufou Joseph Conombo, a Burkinabè physician and politician who served as Prime Minister of Upper Volta from 1978 to 1980. Match-goers see this name on the stadium rather than the plain "Stade Municipal" used in everyday speech.
