Alassane Ouattara Stadium

Alassane Ouattara Stadium is a sports facility in Ebimpé, north of Abidjan, featuring a modern structure with 96 columns forming an arcade with stained glass panels in national colors. The venue can accommodate approximately 60,000 spectators across multiple levels with different seating sections.

Construction began in December 2016, and the stadium opened in 2020 as a modern multipurpose sports center. Completion took longer than initially planned due to environmental conditions and global circumstances affecting the project.

The stadium carries the name of a prominent political figure, reflecting its importance to the nation's identity. It serves as a central venue for local sporting events and gatherings that shape community life.

The venue has extensive parking facilities and is accessible by public transportation, though travel from downtown is about 20 kilometers away. Visitors should know that the large facility has multiple access points, so it's worth checking ahead which areas will be open for your specific event.

The facility is part of a large sports complex with additional training fields and infrastructure, making it one of the most comprehensive sports centers in the region. This broader network of facilities shows potential for various training and competition events beyond the main stadium.
