YOGYAKARTA The existence of the largest stadium in Indonesia is not only a matter of pride for the community, but has become a kind of hope for the country's sports climate to develop more advanced.

The government itself continues to build a stadium that is used as a means of supporting sporting events in various regions. In addition to carrying sophistication, new stadiums that continue to emerge also take into account the capacity of the audience.

The increase in audience capacity is an important factor in building stadiums. The following are some stadiums that have a large capacity in Indonesia.

Jakarta International Stadium is a soccer stadium located in Papanggo, Tanjung Priok, Jakarta, Indonesia. The stadium was inaugurated on July 24, 2022.

According to data from Stadium Database, the Jakarta International Stadium (JIS) is the largest stadium in Indonesia with a audience capacity of 82,000 people. In addition to being used to hold football, JIS is used for other events such as concerts or other events that require a large room.

In second place, SUGBK is the largest stadium in Indonesia. The stadium in Central Jakarta is older than JIS, but the capacity is in second place. The audience capacity of the Gelora Bung Karno Main Stadium is 78,193 people.

This SUGBK is not only used for sporting events, but is used for various events such as concerts to campaigns. This SUGBK is also the headquarters of the Indonesian national team.

The Palaran Main Stadium is located in Palaran, Samarinda, East Kalimantan. This stadium was deliberately built by the East Kalimantan Provincial Government in order to face the 2008 PON. The audience capacity that can be accommodated by the Palaran Main Stadium reaches 67,075 people.

Unfortunately, the news about the Main Palaran Stadium is now tragic because it is not as well maintained as it used to be. In fact, the impression is abandoned because it is not used for sports performances, especially football. The location is difficult to reach and the capacity is too large to make the stadium not much of a choice for sporting events.

The location of the Gelora Bung Tomo Stadium is in Surabaya, East Java. The capacity of this stadium could initially accommodate 60 thousand people. However, this figure shrank after the stadium was renovated. Currently, the stadium can only accommodate 46,806 people.

Currently, Gelora Bung Tomo Stadium is the headquarters of Persebaya Surabaya and is often used for various football matches.

The Lhong Raya Stadium is also known as the Harapan Bangsa Stadium. It is located in Banda Aceh City and has 45,000 spectator seats. The stadium, which was built in 1997, was renovated after the earthquake and tsunami disaster in 2004. Currently, this stadium is the headquarters of Persiraja Banda Aceh.

The capacity of the Jatidiri Stadium is located in Semarang, East Java. This stadium has 45 thousand seats. This stadium was opened for the first time in 1991, but was renovated and only used again in 2022. Currently, the Jatidiri Stadium is a place to practice several football clubs, one of which is PSIS Semarang.
