Arena ”Philip II. of Macedonia / Toše Proeski / Todor”, National stadium in Skopje, North Macedonia
The Philip II. of Macedonia Arena is a sports venue in Skopje featuring tiered seating, eight athletic tracks, and a natural grass pitch measuring 105 by 68 meters. The facility accommodates around 33,000 spectators and serves as the home ground for the national football team.
The venue was first built in 1947 as Gradski Stadion, marking the start of organized sport in the city. Major renovation work from 2008 to 2013 brought new seating and updated amenities to the facility.
The venue was renamed in 2019 to honor Toše Proeski, a celebrated Macedonian singer whose music shaped the country's cultural identity. The name choice connects the sporting space to the nation's musical heritage.
The facility sits in central Skopje and is accessible by public transport from around the city. Arriving early on event days helps secure good seating and avoid crowded conditions.
The south stand, completed in 1980, stands as the tallest stadium structure in Macedonia and features a notably steep design. This architectural choice remains one of the most recognizable features of the complex.
