The Caird Park Velodrome is an outdoor 402.25-metre (1,319.7 ft) concrete velodrome in Dundee, Scotland. Adjacent to the velodrome is an athletics stadium with a 400-metre (1,300 ft) running track, 18- and 9-hole golf courses, several football pitches and a rugby pitch, whilst in the centre of the velodrome is a football pitch, as it is one of two major outdoor sport complexes in the city. In 2012 Sportscotland spent £300,000 on redevelopment of the velodrome. Had Scotland and Ireland's UEFA Euro 2008 bid been successful, a new stadium would have been built in Caird Park.
