AFAS Stadion Pitch Report for ALK vs TWE Match 38 Match
AFAS Stadion replaced the club's former ground, Alkmaarderhout. The main stand is called Victorie Tribune, the stand with the fanatic supporters is called Van der Ben Tribune (Ben-Side), the stand behind the opposite goal is called the Alkmaarderhouttribune, in honour of the former stadium, and the stand opposite to the main stand is called Molenaar Tribune after the founders of AZ.
Some supporters call the stadium Victorie Stadion, alluding to the victory over Spain in the Siege of Alkmaar in 1573 during the Eighty Years' War.
To further grow the club's budget, the AZ board decided to increase the stadium's capacity to 30,000 seats. This would be achieved by adding a second tier to three of the four stands, leaving the Victorie Tribune untouched.
Construction was planned for the second half of 2010, but was delayed indefinitely after the club's main sponsor and one of the main financial contributors to the project, DSB Bank went bankrupt shortly before work started.
