Key facts
Club: ADO Den Haag | Opening: 2007 | Capacity: 15,000 seats
History and description
Cars Jeans Stadion, previously called Kyocera Stadion and ADO Den Haag Stadion, replaced ADO’s old Zuiderpark Stadion, which did not meet modern demands in terms of facilities.
Construction of the new stadium started late 2005 and finished in time for the start of the 2007/08 season.
Cars Jeans Stadion officially opened on 28 July 2007. The first match was played between ADO Den Haag and a selection of non-league players from the region.
The stadium has an exterior of glowing aluminium. Its design allows for an easy expansion to double its current capacity.
In 2010, ADO announced a naming rights deal, which resulted in the name change to Kyocera Stadion. The name changed again in 2017 to Cars Jeans Stadion following a new naming rights deal.

A small stadium but packed with atmosphere. It was easy to get to from city centre. No bars nearby only a supporters home for a pre match beer. As an international city i could hear several languages being spoken. Probably due to their big friendships with Legia Warsaw, Juventus and FC Bruges.
There is a great view of the pitch from all seats. Crowds average around 11 000, but it sounds more like 30,000.
Unlike most stadiums where the atmosphere comes from one area, normally behind one of the goals, at ADO the noise come from Vak G behind the goal and from the Midden Noord on the long side (North side) of the ground. This makes for an amazing experience when both zones chant at each other.
The supporters are also well known for the amazing banners they produce, some of the best artwork you’ll see in any stadium.
As a foreign visitor, i found the locals to bevery friendly. When they heard me speaking English they spoke to me, eager to tell me about the club and why i was visiting. I was made to feel really welcome.
I’ve now been several times and loved it. Friends who have joined me who are also ground hoppers agree, a special club that makes you feel at home and the locals that make you feel you belong there.
