Mogadishu Stadium is Somalia's largest sports venue and the home of national football. Built in the late 1970s, it fell out of use during the years of conflict and has since been refurbished with a new pitch.
Today it hosts Somali league matches, youth tournaments and national celebrations — a match here is one of the best ways to feel the city's energy.
Visiting tips
- Ask locally about fixtures; weekend league matches draw big, friendly crowds.
- Bring water and a hat for afternoon games.
