Guldfågeln Arena, Football stadium in Kalmar, Sweden.
Guldfågeln Arena is a football stadium in Kalmar featuring a hybrid grass pitch measuring 105 by 68 meters with four stands. The venue holds approximately 12,500 spectators and is supported by three additional training pitches for year-round use.
The stadium opened in 2011 replacing the century-old Fredriksskans ground after Kalmar FF secured their first Allsvenskan title. This new facility allowed the city to support the club's rise in Swedish football.
The venue served as one of seven selected locations for the UEFA Women's Euro 2013, hosting three group matches and a quarter-final between Norway and Spain.
The venue is centrally located in Kalmar and easily accessible by car or public transport. Visitors should allow extra time for parking, especially during larger matches.
The stadium takes its name from Guldfågeln, a regional poultry producer that holds the naming rights. This made it the first Swedish football stadium sponsored by a food company.
