The Hoima Sports Stadium, also FUFA Rujumba Stadium Hoima, is a planned multi-purpose stadium in Uganda. It is intended to be used for the first time, during the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations soccer tournament. The stadium is one of the three stadia that Uganda plans to use during the tournament, that will be jointly hosted by Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda.[1]

Location

The stadium would be located in Mparo Division, in the city of Hoima, in Bunyoro sub-region, in the Western Region of Uganda. The proposed stadium will sit on a total of Шаблон:Convert of which Шаблон:Convert was donated by the Estate of the late Dr. Rujumba and the balance was sold to the Federation of Uganda Football Associations (FUFA) by the same estate.[2][3]

Overview

Hoima Sports Stadium is mainly intended for soccer matches, although other sports such as athletics are also expected to be practiced here. The stadium has a proposed capacity of 20,000. The primary purpose of this stadium is to be part of the three host stadia that Uganda will use to host the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations in a tri-state-host tournament to be held in the East African countries of Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda.[4]

In September 2023, the Confederation of African Football (CAF), announced the East Africa Pamoja bid by Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania as the winning bid to host the 2027 AFCON tournament. The bid beat out other bids by other countries including Algeria, Egypt, Botswana, Senegal and Nigeria.[5][6][7]

At the bidding stage FUFA nominated Namboole Stadium, in metropolitan Kampala, Bihanga Stadium in Fort Portal, Akii Bua Stadium in Lira City and the proposed Hoima Sports Stadium. Training grounds proposed include Kampala International School Uganda (KISU), Nakivubo Stadium, Muteesa II Stadium, in Wankulukuku, Denver Godwin Stadium and St. Mary's Stadium Kitende.[1][7]

Construction

With FUFA having secured the land where the infrastructure is going to be built,[3] construction funded by the government of Uganda, is expected to start in 2024, once the architectural plans and environmental studies are finalized and approved.[4][8]

In January 2024, Ugandan media reported that the title of the land on which the stadium is going to be built was transferred to the Uganda National Council of Sports, because government cannot build on private land. Also, Summa International Construction Company Inc. of Türkiye, was selected to build the stadium. The company is studying the topography, terrain and soil characteristic, ahead of contract signing.[9][10]
