Kiryat Shmona Municipal Stadium, Municipal football stadium in Kiryat Shmona, Israel.
Kiryat Shmona Municipal Stadium is a football ground in the city's northern location with seating for around 5,300 people. The facility has two main grandstands, one on the eastern side with modern seating and another on the western side that keeps its original design.
The stadium opened in 1989 as a smaller facility that served the local football club. A major upgrade came in 2006 when the eastern grandstand was built, significantly expanding the site's capacity and giving it the layout seen today.
This is where Hapoel Ironi Kiryat Shmona plays, and match days bring the local community together from across the region. The games form part of the city's weekly rhythm and give people a place to gather.
The ground is in the north of Israel and has parking available along with several entry points for visitors. Accessible seating is provided throughout, and finding your way around is straightforward thanks to clear signs on the facility.
In 2011 the stadium hosted the opening ceremony of the Jewish Youth Games, an event organized by Jewish communities from America and Canada. This brought international attention to the venue and marked it as a host for a major sporting occasion.
