    The Vivekananda Yuba Bharati Krirangan Stadium is located in the city of Salt Lake City, Kolkata and is probably named after Swami Vivekananda which was probably the largest. Salt Lake Stadium is a small stadium in the provision town.

    It is a heaven for football lover in India. It is one of the largest and most beautiful stadium one has ever seen. Enjoyed many games here including FIFA WORLD CUP UNDER 17 in 2017. I felt I was seating in an European Stadium. Please go at least once in a lifetime. Superb atmosphere. Just Love it.

    The Salt Lake Stadium, officially the Vivekananda Yuba Bharati Krirangan (VYBK; transl. Vivekananda Indian Youth Stadium), is a multipurpose stadium in Bidhannagar, Kolkata, with a current capacity of 85,000. The Salt Lake Stadium is the main home of ATK Mohun Bagan, East Bengal. It is the second largest stadium in India by seating capacity. Before its renovation in 2011, it was the second largest football stadium in the world, having a seating capacity of 150,000. Prior to the construction and opening of Rungrado May Day Stadium in 1989, it was the largest football stadium in the world. The stadium hosted the final match of the 2017 FIFA U-17 World Cup, alongside hosting other matches of the tournament. As part of security measures for the 2017 U-17 World Cup, the stadium was only open for 66,687 viewers. It will be used again for the 2021 FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup. The stadium's record attendance was recorded in 1997 when 131,781 spectators watched the Federation Cup semifinal between East Bengal and Mohun Bagan. The stadium switched back to natural grass from artificial turf as part of the preparations for hosting the U-17 World Cup in 2017. The new turf was unveiled in a Kolkata Derby match between East Bengal and Mohun Bagan during the 2015–16 Calcutta Premier Division match. About The stadium was established in 1984 because the club grounds in the Maidan area, each with capacity around 20,000, were proving too small for the huge crowd that occupied the grounds on matchdays. And while the Eden Gardens was there to handle some of the bigger games, like the Kolkata Derby, the pressure of handling both cricket and football was proving to be a bit too much for the stadium. The stadium is situated approximately 10 kilometres to the east of the Kolkata downtown. The roof is made of metal tubes and aluminum sheets and concrete. The stadium was inaugurated in January 1984. There are two electronic scoreboards and control rooms. There is illumination at night . There are special arrangements for TV broadcasting. The gigantic stadium features three tiers of concrete galleries. The stadium has 9 entry gates and 30 ramps for the spectators to reach the viewing blocks. The nine gates include the VIP gate. The gates 1 and 2 are on kadapara road, gate no.3, 3A, 4, 4A and 4B are on the side of Broadway; gate no 5 and the VIP gate are on the side of EM By pass. The ramps are inside the stadium and link the inner ring road to the different levels of the stadium complex. The stadium covers an area of 76.40 acres (309,200 m2). The stadium has a unique[citation needed] synthetic track for athletic meets. It has a main football arena measuring 105 by 70 metres (344 ft × 230 ft). It also houses electronics scoreboards, elevators, VIP enclosures, peripheral floodlighting arrangement from the roof-top, air-conditioned VIP rest room, conference hall and much more. The stadium has its own water arrangements and standby diesel generation sets. Very Nostalgic Stadium this is for Kolkata 🙏🏻🙏🏻

    A good stadium which boasts a very energetic atmosphere. The crowd is always in the game shouting and clapping in rhythm and performing occasional Mexican waves. The top level seats are better and it is recommended that you go for them if possible but the lower level seats are good as well. The location of this stadium is perfect (a minute's distance from my house What many may not know is that you can enter the stadium to roam around its outside perimeter anytime when there isn't a match going on.A good stadium which boasts a very energetic atmosphere.

    The great iconic stadium. Biggest football stadium in India with seating capacity about 90000. For seating plastic bucket chair are there. Great experience during any match. Only problem on matchday nothing is allowed inside stadium other than wallet and mobile. There should be a proper counter to keep the bags.

    India's largest stadium here in my town Kolkata even Asia's one of the largest. I saw the full crowded stadium when I visited in the U17 FIFA WC Finale (Spain v/s England), where England became the champion of the Mega Tournament. Loved that Mexican wave while enjoying the match in the presence of FIFA President Infantino.

    As an ardent supporter of Mohun Bagan Athletic club, watched lots of matches here. Before renovation almost 1 lakh spectators used to attend derby matches here. Currently the capacity is reduced to 66000. It is one of the largest stadium in the world. Sharing some of my memories.

    It is one of the best stadiums in India and one of the largest in the world in terms of seating capacity. The 5 gates are spread all round the stadium and entries can be hectic on a derby day like Mohunbagan vs East Bengal or international matches like India vs Bangladesh. Other than that it is one of the most energetic places in the city.

    This stadium is one of the biggest stadiums in the world in terms of capacity. Renovation makes the capacity less a bit but it can never diminish the environment. If you are one of the few who never ever came here to witness a match then you are missing some lifetime experience. And if its a durby or some international match of India, then it becomes beyond describable.

    I had the privilege of visiting Salt Lake Stadium in both 2019 and this year for the Durand Cup, and each time it has been an unforgettable experience. As a broadcaster, I have witnessed the stadium's vibrant transformation over the years. The architecture seamlessly blends modern facilities with the rich history of the Durand Cup, creating an atmosphere that is both electric and nostalgic. The sprawling seating accommodates a large number of passionate fans while offering excellent views of the action-packed matches. Beyond its impressive structure, the stadium's maintenance and cleanliness are commendable, contributing to a pleasant overall visit. As I shared some pictures, it's evident that the Salt Lake Stadium's allure extends beyond the pitch, with its well-maintained grounds and facilities. Whether you're a die-hard football aficionado or a casual spectator, this stadium has something for everyone. It's been an honor to start my journey with the Durand Cup at this iconic venue, and I look forward to returning in the future for more exhilarating matches and cherished memories.

  • 5/5 Harshad C. 6 months ago on Google
    *****don't forget to check the amazing pictures attached...clicked at 4 am in the morning***** Also known as the salt lake stadium. I stayed here for 4 days during the National Kickboxing championship. Greenery is everywhere that was like a cherry on the cake. Loved the place. Hostel was well maintained with separate space for men/women. You can see hundreds of police vehicles inside the stadium. There are few restaurants like the stadel inside the stadium but the food is heavily priced. For ex: Mojito or dosa in the south indian restaurant would cost between 150-200 inr. Morning buffet in stadel is priced at inr 499. You can often see kids, grown ups, adults practicing football at a mini court. There is a small lake inside the stadium. Commute is a problem near gate 3. you won't find autos at a very high frequency outside. Sometimes it even takes 20-30 mins. Buses are regular but make sure to wait after the red light because driver will not stop otherwise. To certain places, you need to do a break journey. For example, if you want to go to sealdah then first get an auto for beliaghata then sealdah and will cost you around inr 27 as of august 2023. Ola/uber bike would cost you around 80-100 inr depending on frequency at that in the area. Stadium staff is very friendly and understand hindi/bengali. Either of them were not a problem for me because i can understand/speak both.

    Always love to visit the stadium to watch football matches.. this time the washrooms were completely water logged and not washed properly.. the authority should think about placing food stalls on the day of any match.. as the people sell food, don't look hygienic at all and the prices are also more than the exact amount.

Good parking space. All over a modern stadium. They don't allow water bottles, so don't carry expensive one... Snaks are available inside but price is a bit high. But overall a good experience.

    (Translated by Google) A multipurpose stadium in Bidhannagar, West Bengal, India. As of 2016, the stadium has a capacity of 75,000. It is the largest stadium in India in terms of seating capacity. Prior to the 2011 renovation, the stadium had a capacity of 120,000. At that time it was the second largest stadium in the world. Prior to the inauguration of Rungrado May Day Stadium in North Korea in 1979, the Vivekananda Yuvbharati Stadium was the largest football stadium in the world. The stadium hosts several matches of the tournament, including the final of the 2018 FIFA U-16 World Cup. For security reasons, only 7.6 of the stadium's 75,000 seats were open to spectators during the tournament. The East Bengal-Mohun Bagan match was watched by a maximum of 131,000 spectators on July 13, 1996.

    The biggest stadium in India (for a few years, of the world) - in terms of seating capacity! It has been the scene of countless epic Kolkata derbies - East Bengal vs. Mohun Bagan, ever since it was built. Great atmosphere when the stadium fills out. Recently it hosted the final of the FIFA U-17 World Cup (2017). That tournament brought in lot of upgrades in terms of infrastructure - seats for everyone (even 10 years back, when, as college students we went for the derby matches, seating mostly was on the steps). Went to the VIP area with family members (senior citizens) and found very good amenities - clean toilets, and even a complimentary dinner.

There is also metro station near it and it is a 5 minute walking distance from metro station and it is also accessible by bus

    Used to be one of the Asia's biggest stadium currently may be at 3rd or 4th. Hosts lots of important matches both international (AFC, World Cup qualifier, Friendlies etc. ) and national (ISL, ILEAGUE, Super league etc. ) . Sitting capacity 60k+ everything is ok but toilets are not up to the mark. And you might need to walk a bit to reach to your stand as per the location.

    One of the biggest football stadiums in Asia with a capacity of 80k or 90k easily if allowed in full capacity.. The new renovated stadium has all amenities but yet many resources are not properly managed in the stadium likes of drinking water and washroom facilities... there must be some arrangements regarding these facilities and management must look into availability of some arrangements for keeping bags and umbrella during matches

    Football Mecca of Kolkata. For a Football lover, this space is surely like a pilgrimage. Well maintained and preserved infrastructure. Stadium has 30 Ramps to enter from and 5 gates, other than the VIP Gate, which is on main road of Salt Lake. Though Capacity is 68600, approx 60,000 to 65,000 are allowed. Prior to 2011 renovation it had 1,20,000 seats. 2017, U-17 FIFA world cup was played here. It has Bermuda Grfaa It is completely controllers by the department of Sports of the Government. The stadium was established in 1984 because the club grounds in the Maidan area, each with capacity around 20,000, were proving too small for the huge crowd that occupied the grounds on matchdays. And while the Eden Gardens was there to handle some of the bigger games, like the Kolkata Derby, the pressure of handling both cricket and football was proving to be a bit too much for the stadium. The stadium features three tiers of concrete galleries. The stadium has 9 entry gates and 30 ramps for the spectators to reach the viewing blocks. The nine gates include the VIP gate. Gates 1 and 2 are on Kadapara road, gate no.3, 3A, 4, 4A and 4B are on the side of Broadway; gate no 5 and the VIP gate are on the side of EM By pass. The ramps are inside the stadium and link the inner ring road to the different levels of the stadium complex. The stadium covers an area of 76.40 acres (309,200 m2). The stadium has a unique[citation needed] synthetic track for athletic meets. It has a main football arena measuring 105 by 70 metres (344 ft × 230 ft). It also houses electronics scoreboards, elevators, VIP enclosures, peripheral floodlighting arrangement from the roof-top, air-conditioned VIP rest room, conference hall and much more. The stadium has its own water arrangements and standby diesel generatiorsets.

    Salt Lake Stadium, also known as Vivekananda Yuva Bharati Stadium, is the largest stadium in India as it can host around 85,000 fans.

    Second largest football stadiums of Asia .. it can easily accommodate more than 70/80k People in a single match .. This is a pride for not only Bengali's as well for Indian football as many star players has played in this stadium from over ages... The transport system to the stadium has been an advantage with the metro railways been now available in it's vicinity from last one year... People can easily reach stadium with help of metro nowadays although the metro service is not available in Sunday.. People can also reach the stadium taking auto or bus service from the nearest Railway station which is Bidhannagar or UltoDanga area... this has many entry points spread across the stadium and ample space to hold big matches... as well as it has Stadel hotel situated inside the stadium which serves as a place for organizing many marriage and other social events ... ❤️

    After the renovation for the world cup it had it's own charm. The ambience,the crowd,the cheer it's just another level. Ticket prices are reasonable for obvious reasons.But the problem started when we went to watch a match recently. The authority don't care about cleanliness or hygiene about the seating facility. It was intolerably dirty.
