Cebeci Inönü Stadium

Cebeci Inönü Stadium, which stands out as the historical stadium of Ankara, always attracts the attention of people who are interested in both sports and history. Cebeci Inönü Stadium, located in Cebeci district, has a total capacity of 37 thousand spectators. The first attempts at this special and impressive place were made by Governor of Ankara Enver Kuray on May 20, 1963. The full opening of this place and the playing of matches corresponds to the year 1967. Until recently, the stadium has hosted competitions for the teams of Hacettepe and Ankara Demirspor. Because it is located in front of many modern stadiums in terms of the atmosphere it creates, Ankara residents always manage to fill the stands packed. As these teams struggle in the 2nd and 3rd leagues, the stadium also gradually moves away from sight. The play-off matches for the promotion to Super League in 2006 take place here. In that match Eskisehirspor defeated Pendikspor and managed to reach a top league. Cebeci Inönü Stadium is the scene of one of the historic days that day. Cebeci Inönü Stadium, which has managed to be an arena for many teams in Ankara throughout its history, is now a ruin. What makes its valuable is the memories it accumulated here throughout its journey. This place also bears witness to the First National match played in Ankara. On that day, the stadium's capacity of 37 thousand is full. Although it is located in the center of the city, a demolition decision is made about the place, which remained in ruins for many years. Despite this, the project is not implemented quickly. The stadium stands idle in the city centre. The people of Ankara have been reacting to this situation for a long time. Especially since the stadium is waiting for the destruction of the fences and in and out of the cut, the people of the region is seriously uncomfortable.
