Georgios Kamaras Stadium, Football stadium in Rizoupoli, Athens, Greece.
The Georgios Kamaras Stadium is a football ground in the Rizoupoli neighborhood of Athens, with a natural grass pitch and stands on multiple sides of the field. The seating is spread across different sections, giving spectators a clear view of the playing surface from various angles.
The stadium was built in 1948 and has served as a home ground for local football clubs ever since. In 2002, a larger Athens club temporarily played here while its own stadium was being renovated.
The stadium takes its name from Georgios Kamaras, a former player of Apollon Smyrnis FC. On match days, supporters of the club gather here and bring an energy that is deeply tied to the team's roots in the northwestern part of Athens.
The closest metro station is Ano Patisia, from which the stadium is easy to reach on foot. On match days it is worth leaving a little extra time, as the streets around the ground tend to fill up quickly.
During the 1970s the stadium regularly drew full stands, an era that older supporters still talk about today. Anyone sitting in the terraces now is in the same sections that packed crowds once filled during that period.
