De Oude Meerdijk, estadio de fútbol en Emmen, Países Bajos
De Oude Meerdijk is a football stadium in Emmen with a capacity of around 8,600 spectators and a natural grass pitch. The venue features four stands including a main stand on the west side containing offices, changing facilities, and a club museum.
The stadium opened in 1977 with a capacity of around 12,000 standing spectators across terraces and open stands. During the 1990s, all standing areas were converted to seating to meet new Dutch safety regulations, reducing capacity to the current 8,600 seats.
The stadium serves as a gathering place where local supporters connect with their community. The simple, unpretentious character of the venue allows fans to experience football in a direct and familiar setting.
The stadium sits on the eastern edge of Emmen and is easily accessible by car or bus, with line 95 stopping at Stadionplein right across from the venue. Ample parking is available nearby and clear signage makes navigation straightforward for visitors.
The stadium has undergone several name changes due to sponsorship deals over the years, originally known as Stadion Meerdijk. Visitors can take guided tours behind the scenes and explore the club museum to get closer to the team's story.
