Adrar Stadium (Arabic: ملعب آدرار; Berber languages: ⴰⴱⴰⵔⴰⵣ ⵏ ⵓⴷⵔⴰⵔ (Adrar means mountain in Tamazight[1]); French: Grand Stade d'Agadir), is a multi-use stadium in Agadir, Morocco, near the Atlas Mountains, and is used by the local football team: Hassania Agadir, and sometimes the Moroccan national team and also for FIFA and CAF international football matches as a neutral venue.
The construction project began on paper in 2003, with the idea of building the stadium for Morocco's failed 2006 FIFA World Cup bid. Then, in 2007, the project resumed but was only completed for its inauguration in 2013. In time for the 2013 FIFA Club World Cup that year, it also hosted the 2018 African Nations Cup
Agadir's Adrar stadium is used mostly for club football matches in the Botola Pro League and has a capacity of 45,480 spectators. There have also been various international friendlies and qualification matches played in the stadium for the Moroccan national team but it has also been a neutral venue for some Confederation of African Football (CAF) teams to play friendlies and tournament qualification matches. And, it can also host music concerts. Yet, it is undergoing renovations to increase the capacity for its use in future international football tournaments hosted in Morocco for 2025 and 2030.
