Key facts
Club: GKS Katowice | Opening: 1955 | Capacity: 7,455 seats
History and description
Stadion Miejski Katowice opened in 1955. In the next years, various new stands were erected including a seater stand on the side and terraces behind the goals.
In the 1980s, a new main stand was built, but no further changes have been made since.
In the 2010s, plans were made for the construction of a new 12,000-seater stadium in its place, but these came to nothing due to a lack of funding.
How to get to Stadion Miejski Katowice
Stadion Miejski Katowice is located in the north-west of the city of Katowice at about 3 kilometres from its city centre and main railway station. The stadium lies just north of the large Silesia City Shopping Centre.
