Meadowbank Stadium History

Meadowbank Stadium (officially known as Meadowbank Sports Centre) is a multi-purpose sports facility located in the Meadowbank area of ​​Edinburgh, Scotland. Built on the site of the former New Meadowbank and Old Meadowbank sports venues, it was originally constructed to host the 1970 Commonwealth Games. It also hosted the 1986 Games, becoming the first venue to host the event twice. It is the current home ground of the Scottish League Two team, Edinburgh City.

The stadium has also regularly hosted football matches. It served as the home ground for the Scottish Football League team Meadowbank Thistle between 1974 and 1995—during which time it became the UK's first all-seater football ground—and later hosted senior non-league football as the home ground for Edinburgh City. League football returned to Meadowbank in 2016 following City's promotion to the Scottish Professional Football League. The Meadowbank complex also hosts Leith Athletic, who initially played on the Meadowbank 3G artificial pitch located next to the main stadium between 2013 and 2017.
