Stadium

Originally opened in 1953, the Fadil Vokrri Stadium underwent substantial renovation with the support of UEFA and reopened in 2018. Previously known as the Pristina City Stadium, the stadium was renamed after the former President of the Football Federation of Kosovo, Fadil Vokrri who was instrumental in Kosovo’s inclusion as a UEFA and FIFA member in 2016 and passed away in 2018.

The stadium has become the home of the Kosovo national football team after its reopening, although it was announced in July 2019 that a new national stadium was to be built with a capacity of 30,000. Local side FC Prishtina play their home matches at the stadium, winning the Kosovo Superleague 6 times since 1999.
