Currently the Eredivisie side play their home matches in the Cambuur Stadion, which is in the east side of Leeuwarden, and holds 10,500. The stadium was built in 1936, but Cambuur have now decided it is time for a change.
Today the club have released plans to build a new 15,000 seat stadium in the west side of the city behind the WTC hotel. The plans will cost around €25 million, and Cambuur hope that their new stadium will be built in 2016.
Chairman of the supervisory board of Cambuur, Ype Smith told Leeuwarden Courant, “The plan has two pillars: sustainability in relation to the energy issue and development of commercial spaces, this is not a pipe dream, but well thought out.”
Cambuur are in their first year back in the Eredivisie, and currently sit 14th. Plans for a new stadium clearly show the club to have big ambitions.
