Mizuho Athletic Stadium

Mizuho Athletic Stadium is a track and field venue in Nagoya featuring a standard oval running track with facilities for jumping, throwing, and sprinting events. The facility holds up to 27,000 spectators and sits within Mizuho Park alongside training areas and supporting amenities.

The venue was opened in 1941 and was originally planned as part of Nagoya's bid to host the 1988 Summer Olympics, a bid that ultimately went to Seoul. The stadium has functioned as a regional athletics facility for over eight decades since its founding.

The stadium serves as a regional hub for athletics competitions where you can watch Japanese track and field athletes training and competing. Local communities gather here for sporting events that draw crowds and celebrate the sport.

The stadium is located within Mizuho Park and connects easily to several public transportation lines for access. Standard visitor amenities are available on the grounds, so you can plan a comfortable experience when attending events.

The venue will become a main host site for the 2026 Asian Games, serving as a center for athletics competitions and opening ceremonies. This upcoming transformation will significantly expand the facility's role and infrastructure.
