Cars Jeans Stadium - ADO Den Haag Stadium Guide

Kyocera Stadion was constructed over a two year period between 2005 – 2007 in order to replace ADO Den Haag’s Zuiderpark Stadion which the club first moved to back in 1925.

With the last major renovations occurring in the 1970s, Zuiderpark was becoming increasingly outdated and expensive to maintain with little room for expansion and thus the club sought to move to new facilities at a more spacious out of town business and retail park.

Constructed at a cost of 27 million euros, the opening ceremony was held on the 28th July 2007 with the inaugural match held against a team of amateur players from the local Haaglandse region. Designed by Zwarts & Jansma Architects, the ground is capable of being expanded to 27,000 seats with the addition of a second seating tier similar both AZ Alkmaar and NAC Breda’s stadiums.

Unfortunately expansion plans have yet to be realised as ADO Den Haag were relegated during Kyocera Stadion’s inaugural season. It wasn’t until the 2010/2011 season when sell-outs became a regular occurrence, with the previous attendance record set against SBV Excelsior as Haag fought hard to consolidate their place in the Eredivisie.

The ground was initially known as ADO Den Haag Stadion but the naming rights were put up for sale after the club encountered financial difficulties during the 2008/2009 season. Japanese electronics company Kyocera purchased the naming rights although some fans prefer to call it the Aad Mansveld stadion after the club’s legendary former defender.

The closest train station to the stadium is Den Haag Ypenburg however it’s predominately served by commuter lines and isn’t quite as convenient as the metro as outlined below.

Within The Hague there are two main railway stations: Hollands Spoor (HS) and Centraal Station (CS). Located less than 1.5 km apart, they serve different routes and are designed to be complimentary rather than competing stations.

The city of Hague where ADO Den Haag are based shares an airport with Rotterdam known simply as “Rotterdam The Hague Airport”. It is located 23 km south of the city and is served by numerous International flight carriers.

Located out of town unless you have a rental car the two nearest hotels (Mövenpick and Van der Valk) aren’t really accessible.
