Misr Stadium (Egyptian Arabic: ستاد مصر, Egyptian Arabic pronunciation: [stɑːd mɑsˤr], aliases: Egypt Stadium),[1] commonly known as the New Administrative Capital Stadium, is a stadium in Egypt's Olympic Sports City in the New Administrative Capital. It has a capacity of over 93,940 people, making it the largest stadium in the country and the second largest in Africa.[2][3]
It is part of the Egypt International Olympic City, a large sports complex that has been under construction since 2015. It will have a training ground, two indoor halls (one of them a 15,000-capacity arena), an Olympic-size swimming pool, and other buildings, and is being built with an eye toward the country's possible bids for the Olympic Games or the FIFA World Cup.[4][5]
