Arnar
Ijevan, Armenia
The stadium in Ijevan carries no sponsor's name and never has. It opened in 2007, built and funded by the Arnar charitable foundation under Armenian businessman Artsruni Galumyan, and the ground kept the foundation's name rather than picking up a commercial one along the way.
Its one notable afternoon in the record books came on 9 May 2008, when it hosted the Armenian Independence Cup final between Ararat and Banants, settled 2-1 after extra time in front of 2,500 spectators, still the highest attendance the ground has recorded.
In 2011 it took on a role beyond its own city, standing in for the stadiums of Dilijan and Gyumri while those grounds went through reconstruction.
The pitch is natural grass, and the ground sits on Yerevanyan Street, home to Bentonit Ijevan, a club founded in 1977.
