The Josko Arena (proper spelling: Josko ARENA ) is a football stadium in the Austrian city of Ried im Innkreis , State of Upper Austria .

The name sponsor has been the window and door manufacturer Josko , which is based in Kopfing im Innkreis , since June 2018 .

history

The Josko Arena was built on the area of ​​the Rieder Messe and offers space for 7,300 spectators. It replaced the Rieder Stadium as the home stadium of SV Ried, which only has around 1,100 seats. The Ried Stadium will, however, still be used for athletics competitions and training for SV Ried.

The spectator stands of the Josko Arena are completely covered and it is purely a football stadium. This means that there is no athletics facility around the field and the spectators sit or stand right next to the field. This guarantees a better atmosphere than in a spacious area. The stadium has a VIP area, which was expanded to 500 seats in 2013 and now has two price categories, as well as press workstations with fiber optic internet access. The SV Ried fan clubs are represented on the west stand , which is located behind one of the two gates and functions as a standing stand. The away sector, which can seat around 600 spectators, also consists of standing room.

In summer 2013 the arena received underfloor heating , in summer 2015 the floodlights were upgraded to 1,200 lux illuminance . Since the 2016/17 season, the stadium has owned the Fussl Wikinger Corner , a smoke-free family sector with a total of 376 seats.
