Babil Stadium ( Arabic: ملعب بابل, romanizedMalʿab bābl) is a football stadium that is currently under construction in Babil, Iraq. [3] It will primarily serve as the new home stadium of Babylon SC and Al-Qasim SC. The stadium will cost 116.212 billion IQD, funded entirely by Iraqi government. [4] It is located in the neighborhood of Al Hillah, in Babil Governorate, home to what is left of the ancient city of Babylon. It will seat 32,200 spectators. [5] The stadium was originally scheduled to open in early 2014, but due to financial crises, construction has been put on hold multiple times. [6] As of February 2022, the stadium is yet to be completed.

Design

The project consists of a sports complex of 225 hectares, containing a football stadium for 32,200 spectators, two training fields, a four star hotel and parking areas. [7] The main football stadium includes cafés, restaurants, changing rooms, VIP areas and spectator boxes. The venue designed by Javier Garcia Alda was initially to have single-tiered stands, but final layout will see it with two tiers. [8] It does not have an athletics track, allowing spectators to enjoy an optimal visual experience. [9] The design of the stadium is an contrast of the latest technologies and the traditional Arabic culture reflected through the combination of functional structures and ornamental patterns which create a new harmony. The design complies with FIFA requirements. [10]
