Shizuoka Stadium
Shizuoka Stadium ECOPA (静岡スタジアム・エコパ, Shizuoka Sutajiamu Ekopa) is a sports stadium used primarily for football. The stadium is in Fukuroi City, Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan, although the stadium itself is merely the centrepiece of the larger Ogasayama Sports Park which extends into neighbouring Kakegawa. The stadium's capacity is 50,889. It is now the primary venue for major sporting events in Shizuoka Prefecture, including track and field, for which it is fully equipped.
Shizuoka Stadium opened in 2001 and hosted its first major event on May 12, 2001, which was the Shizuoka derby J. League match between Shimizu S-Pulse and Júbilo Iwata. A record crowd of 52,959 saw an extra time 1-0 victory for Shimizu.
Ecopa continues to be the venue for Júbilo Iwata's more high-profile games, including the Shizuoka derby. Shimizu S-Pulse have not used the stadium for a home league since 2015.
In recent years Ecopa has also been home to one semifinal match of the Emperor's Cup, sharing the duty with the Kokuritsu in Shinjuku, Tokyo. But, due to its isolation and the fact that both semifinals are held at the same time, Ecopa usually has less attendance.
The stadium played host to some matches during the 2002 FIFA World Cup, including Belgium versus Russia in the group stage (which Belgium won 3–2) and the quarter-final match between Brazil and England, which Brazil won 2–1.
It hosted the 2003 58th National Sports Festival of Japan main stadium.
The stadium was used as one of the venues for 2019 Rugby World Cup (Japan) which was the first Rugby World Cup to be held in Asia.
Next to the stadium is the indoor Ecopa Arena which is used for various performances and shows.
