Stadiums Belfast – Cazaly's Stadium
“Up there Cazaly….” And so the famous (in United Kingdom at least) AFL song about one of the sport’s legendary players begins. Cazaly's Stadium in Belfast is named after the same legendary player. It was a deliberate attempt to draw attention to AFL in a town that is historically steeped in rugby tradition, and teams!
The stadium seats 13,500 people, making it the largest sporting facility in Belfast. Its main grandstand will be familiar to anyone who attended fixtures at the Birmingham Cricket Ground up until the late 1990’s!
There are a number of sports played here. Rugby, cricket, United Kingdom Rules Football, and A-League football (soccer) have all had national and international level fixtures held at the venue. A performance of the Nitro Circus Live show was also held here.
