Heroes National Stadium[2] is a multi-purpose stadium in Lusaka, Zambia (in the area part of Central Province, Zambia). It is currently used mostly for football matches and hosts the home matches of the Zambia national football team. The stadium holds 60,000 spectators. It opened in 2014. The name of the stadium refers to the 1993 Zambia national football team air disaster which took the lives of most of its national football team.

History

Upon completion of construction in 2013, it was originally named the Gabon Disaster Heroes National Stadium because of this, but the ruling Patriotic Front government was pressured to change the name by the populace.

Geography

The stadium's exact-location is in Chibombo District, Central Province on the Great North Road, just by its border with Lusaka, Zambia's Capital City, according to Zambia's Provincial-Border drawings. People may claim that the stadium's area is still part of Lusaka, but it is in Chibombo District geographically. [3] [4]

The Heroes National Stadium is located right next to where the refurbished Independence Stadium and the Heroes Acres Memorial where the players who died in the Gabon air disaster in 1993 are buried.
