Kyocera Stadion is a multi-use stadium in The Hague, the Netherlands, designed by Zwarts & Jansma Architects. Completed in 2007, the stadium is used mostly for football of ADO Den Haag. It has a capacity of 15,000 people, and replaced ADO's former stadium Zuiderpark which was considerably smaller. Despite being one of the three largest cities in the Netherlands, the clubs attendances have been traditionally smaller than their rivals Ajax, Feyenoord and PSV Eindhoven.
The opening ceremony was on July 28, 2007, since June 2010 ADO Den Haag has an agreement with the multinational Kyocera to change the name of the stadium to Kyocera Stadion.[2] When the club opened the stadium, Wim Deetman, the mayor of The Hague, said that this stadium is the most secure stadium of Europe. The stadium has security cameras installed that record several pictures of every audience member and the so-called Happy Crowd Control system will take pictures of spectators when entering the stadium.
