Mačva Stadium
Mačvanski okrug
Mačva Stadium is a football stadium located in Šabac, Serbia, serving as the home ground for FK Mačva. It has a seating capacity of 15,000 spectators. The stadium underwent significant renovations beginning in the early 1990s when the southern, eastern, and former northern stands were constructed by the Belgrade construction company "Građevinsko preduzeće Rad." In 2012, the old and unsafe northern stand and part of the western stand were demolished, followed by the completion of the eastern stand. New seats were installed on the eastern and southern stands in 2014 for the first time. After FK Mačva's promotion to the Serbian SuperLiga, the old western stand was demolished in the summer of 2017 and replaced with a new one, alongside renovations to club facilities and locker rooms. The stadium also saw the installation of floodlights completed in December 2017, with the first match under lights played on December 13, 2017, against Voždovac. These upgrades have modernized the stadium, enhancing the experience for players and fans alike.
