History
editThe stadium was built in the interwar period.[6] During World War II, a match between the Hungarian and German army teams was held there, as Hungarians won 4–3.[6] On 16 June 2009, it hosted a first-leg final game of the Subcarpathian Polish Cup, as Sokół Nisko was defeated 6–2 by Resovia.[7]
In 2017, the stadium underwent renovations. A cloakroom and a gym were built, the roof was replaced, pitch lighting was added, and the old stand was renovated. The cost of renovations was PLN 490,000.[8]
On 22 July 2020, the stadium hosted the regional Polish Cup final game, as Sokół Sokolniki faced Unia Nowa Sarzyna.[9], and eventually lost 5–0.[10]
Dni Niska
editThe stadium also hosts the Nisko's Days (Polish: Dni Niska) annual event, in which well-known Polish music bands take part – as Dżem, Kombi and Zakopower.[5][11]
