EXPO'70 Commemorative Stadium

Stadium in Suita/Osaka from 1972, named after the 1970 World Expo, former home of Gamba Osaka, capacity 21,000.

The Expo '70 Commemorative Stadium in Suita, a city in greater Osaka, takes its name from the 1970 World Exposition — one of the most significant in Japan's history, which introduced the country to the post-war international world. Opened in 1972, the stadium combines football and athletics facilities with a capacity of 21,000 spectators. Between 1980 and 2016, it served as the home ground of Gamba Osaka before the club moved to their new Panasonic Stadium. The Expo grounds surrounding the stadium are today a park with historical character — a place offering Osaka visitors a glimpse of the relics and monuments of the Expo era.
