Central Hiroshima, brand new
EDION Peace Wing Hiroshima opened in February 2024. It's a 30,000-seat football-specific stadium in the center of Hiroshima β a 5-minute tram ride from the Peace Memorial Park. Sanfrecce Hiroshima finally have a home that matches their ambition.
Why it matters
Sanfrecce previously played at the old Hiroshima Big Arch, which was far from the city center with poor public transport. The new stadium changed everything. City-center location means higher attendance, better atmosphere, and easier access for tourists combining football with Hiroshima sightseeing.
The stadium
Football-specific. No running track. Steep, close stands. Modern facilities throughout. The design references Hiroshima's message of peace. Clean lines, open concourses, views of the surrounding hills.
Getting there
