Sauðárkróksvöllur is an Icelandic open-air stadium that has a standing spectator capacity of about 2,500, but no permanent seating.[1] It opened in 2004, and has a grass surface.[2] It was built with a combination of public and private funding for the Icelandic Games held in the summer of 2004.[3] The stadium was also used for the 2004 and 2009 youth games, the 2006 and 2007 Icelandic Athletic championships and various other large or small events.
