Norwood Oval, also known as Coopers Stadium, is home to the Norwood Football Club and hosts AFL games, cricket matches, and concerts. Located 4 km east of Adelaide’s CBD, it has a capacity of 15,000. Parking is available nearby, but public transport via Go Zone buses is a convenient option, with buses running frequently throughout the day.
In 2010 the light towers were upgraded from the original six light towers from the 1950s to four television standard light towers situated on the four corners of the oval.
Additionally, Norwood Oval is often a venue for major concerts and festivals in the area as well as local markets.
There are future plans to upgrade the spectating facilities to enhance the maximum capacity of the oval for major sporting events. Currently if you are looking for food at the oval you may choose from a range of different local food stalls offering snacks, and craft beers from local breweries.
