Stadium Information

The Gaziantep Stadium, also known as the Kalyon Stadium for sponsorship reasons, is an architectural gem located on the outskirts of Gaziantep, Turkey. Inaugurated on January 15, 2017, this stadium replaced the old Kamil Ocak, offering a capacity for 35,574 spectators and becoming the home of Gaziantep FK after the disappearance of Gaziantepspor in 2020.

Designed by Bahadir Kul Architects, the stadium stands out for its facade composed of panels in red and black tones, the traditional colors of the local clubs. This wrapping not only pays tribute to the city's sports identity but also creates a dynamic visual effect, changing in shade depending on the angle from which it is observed.

Built on an area of 158,000 m², the venue has 1,363 parking spaces and is strategically located about 6 km from the city center, facilitating access through highways and railway lines. Its playing field, 105 x 68 meters, is covered with hybrid turf and has underground heating, ensuring optimal conditions throughout the year.

Beyond its function as the venue for Süper Lig matches, the Gaziantep Stadium has hosted matches of the Turkish national team, highlighting the friendly against the Czech Republic in November 2022, which attracted over 29,000 fans. This stadium not only symbolizes the sporting progress of the region but also reflects the fusion of tradition and modernity that characterizes Gaziantep.
