Warri Stadium

Warri Stadium, on Cemetery Road, is the home of Warri Wolves FC and the main sports venue for the city. Built in the 1970s during the oil boom, it holds around 20,000 spectators and doubles as a venue for athletics. If Warri Wolves are playing a home match during your visit, it is worth attending — the atmosphere is lively and tickets are cheap.

The stadium is also used for public events, trade fairs, and occasional concerts. Check locally for schedules, as fixtures can change with little notice.

A story
Warri has a strong football culture disproportionate to its size — the city produced several Super Eagles internationals, and matches at the stadium draw passionate crowds that make the atmosphere feel far larger than the attendance numbers suggest. The city's top club, Warri Wolves, has been one of Nigeria's consistent Premier League sides.
