The Silesian Stadium (Polish: Stadion Śląski; Polish: [ˈstadjɔn ˈɕlɔ̃skʲi]) is a sport stadium located on the premises of Silesian Park in Chorzów, Poland. The stadium has a fully covered capacity of 54,378,[1] after refurbishment completed in October 2017. The stadium hosted many Poland national football team matches and for many decades was Poland's national stadium. After the National Stadium in Warsaw was completed, the Silesian Stadium lost that role. The stadium was not in operation between 2009 and 2017 due to its ongoing reconstruction.
Silesian Stadium is a UEFA Category 4 stadium[2] and hosts the annual Kamila Skolimowska Memorial, a Diamond League meeting.[3] The stadium hosted the athletics events of the 2023 European Games and is set to host the 2028 European Athletics Championships.[4]
