Development work on nakivubo stadium begins as parkyard market demolition continues
Nakivubo Stadium is a multi-purpose stadium in Kampala, Uganda. It is currently used mostly for football matches and serves as the home venue of SC Villa. The stadium has a capacity of 30,000 people.
The stadium is located in the Central Business District of Kampala City next St .Balikuddembe Market, within a walking distance from the Old Taxi Park. In early 2013, the stadium was closed by the Uganda Revenue Authority over "accumulated debts.".
The stadium was also shut down in May 2011, but re-opened after only a week after payment plans were negotiated. The stadium is now reopened and hosted the third round, second leg of the CAF U-17 Championship, a game between Uganda and Zambia, on September 27, 2014.
