Ambedkar Stadium (Football)
Ambedkar Stadium in Central Delhi is one of India’s most historic football venues, located near Delhi Gate in the Daryaganj area. Originally known as Corporation Stadium, it was renamed in honor of Dr. B. R. Ambedkar and has long served as a hub for football in the capital. With a seating capacity of around 35,000, the stadium has hosted major tournaments including the Nehru Cup and AFC Challenge Cup, and has been a home ground for clubs like Sudeva Delhi and Rajasthan United.
Its compact size and vibrant atmosphere have made it a favorite among players and fans alike, with former Indian coach Bob Houghton praising its ability to energize the crowd and intimidate opponents.
Despite its legacy, the stadium has faced periods of neglect, prompting the Municipal Corporation of Delhi to initiate a ₹5 crore renovation project in 2024. The revamp aims to restore its infrastructure to international standards, including upgrades to spectator stands, drainage systems, dressing rooms, and the addition of a media center and cafeteria.
