Valmieras Futbola kluba sporta bāze (Valmieras futbola kluba stadions)
Valmiera, Latvia
Formerly: Valmieras stadions, 8th Valmiera Regiment Stadium, Valmieras futbola kluba stadions (for base)
The current building is not the arena that carried the name Jāņa Daliņa stadions for most of the twentieth century. Little of that older stadium survives even in memory: no attendance record from its decades of use has come down in any accessible form.
What stands now dates from 2018–2021, when the old ground was demolished rather than patched, and a new stadium and covered athletics hall went up in its place at a cost of €21.1 million, split between the state budget and the Valmiera municipality. The rebuild gave the club changing rooms, a gym, medical and coaching space, and a 100-bed hotel for athletes under the stands. It reopened in August 2021 with a World Athletics Category II certificate for the running track, and the pitch went through UEFA's provisional certification, clearing Valmiera FC to play continental football there.
Away from football, the ground has doubled as a concert venue on occasion, though Prāta Vētra's 2025 show in the town used the Dīvaliņa meadows instead, with the stadium complex serving only as a car park.
