Al-Fallujah Stadium ( Arabic: ملعب الفلوجة) is a multi-purpose stadium in Al-Fallujah, Iraq. It is currently used mostly for football matches and is the home stadium of Al-Jolan SC. Opened in February 2022, it has a capacity of 7,000 spectators.
History
Construction started in 2012 and stopped in December 2013 at 93% completion. [3] The stadium turned then into a shelter for Syrian refugee families who fled to Al-Anbar. [4] The stadium suffered various damages such as the scorching of its turf, the breaking of its seats and the deterioration of several of its compartments. [5]
After the relocation of the refugees, the government of Al-Anbar announced in 2021 the restoration of the stadium. [6]
The inauguration of the stadium took place on 21 February 2022 during a football match between Al-Jolan SC and Dujail SC. [7]
