On June 7, the long-awaited grand opening of the National Football Stadium took place in Minsk. An honorary delegation from the Kopyl District attended the ceremony.
This grand event was the culmination of 6 years of hard work. Preparations for the site began back in January 2019, and now the arena has opened its gates!
What makes this stadium special? Here are some interesting facts:
A symbol of friendship: The project embodies the strong ties between Belarus and China. It is made with a "Chinese twist", designed and built according to Chinese standards and norms.
Architectural order: Approaches to the stadium are thought out according to the cardinal directions.
Multilingualism: All information on the territory is presented in Belarusian, Russian, English and Chinese.
Arena power: The stadium meets the highest FIFA standards! Natural pitch (105 x 68 m), 33,000 spectators in the stands, heating and irrigation systems. There is everything you need: VIP zones, modern locker rooms, a press center, a cafe, shops and even a fitness club.
The opening ceremony was attended by the President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko. And following the official part, the first football match started at the new stadium - the youth teams of Belarus and China met in it.
