The Nisko Municipal Stadium (pl|Stadion Miejski w Nisku), officially known as MKS "Sokół" Stadium in Nisko,[2] [3] is a football stadium owned by the town of Nisko, Poland. It serves as the home ground for Sokół Nisko's matches and is also the venue for the annual Nisko Days.[4]
The stadium was built in the interwar period.[5] During World War II, a match between the Hungarian and German army teams was held there, as Hungarians won 4–3.[5] 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.[6]
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.[7]
On 22 July 2020, the stadium hosted the regional Polish Cup final game, as Sokół Sokolniki faced Unia Nowa Sarzyna.[8], and eventually lost 5–0.[9]
The stadium also hosts the Nisko's Days (pl|Dni Niska) annual event, in which well-known Polish music bands take part – as Dżem, Kombi and Zakopower.[10] [11]
