Stade Chedli Zouiten, Multi-purpose stadium in Mutuelleville, Tunisia.
Stade Chedli Zouiten is a multi-purpose sports stadium in Tunis with two grass football pitches, a running track, jumping pits, and shooting ranges. The venue holds around 18,000 spectators and is used for both training sessions and official competitions.
The stadium was built in 1942 under the name Stade Géo André and became an important sports venue in the region. It was renamed in 1963 to honor a Tunisian sports figure, and two years later it hosted matches during the Africa Cup of Nations.
The stadium is named after Chedly Zouiten, a Tunisian sports pioneer who helped promote athletics in the country. His name carries real meaning for those who know the early history of organized sport in Tunis.
The stadium is in Tunis and can be reached by public transport, with parking also available nearby. During events, arriving a little early helps avoid waiting at the entrance.
The two grass football pitches on site are kept separate for different purposes: one is reserved for training only, while the other is used for official matches. This kind of separation between training and competition spaces is not common in Tunisian football venues.
