Donauparkstadion – stadium description
Located just north east of downtown Linz, the stadium was originally called Tabak-Sportplatz. In summer of 1997 the name was changed to Donauparkstadion, originating from the Danube Park in which the ground sits. Yes, the stadium is just 50 meters away from the famous river, at the end of the promenade.
Although its within the historical part of Linz and home to one of the city's most known football club, FC Blau-Weiss, the stadium never earned proper facilities. Despite drawing well over 1,500 people on occasions, it only has one grandstand with 3 rows, offering cover to some 400 people. Everyone else gathers around the field.
