history
Opened in 1975, the stadium consists of four individually standing, roofed spectator stands ( Dr. Duin grandstand ; Jaap Jonk grandstand ; Jaap Bond grandstand ; Pé Mühren grandstand ), which offer 6,984 seats for visitors. There are eight other soccer fields next to the stadium. In the early 1990s, the largest renovation of the stadium was carried out. Artificial turf has been laid in the venue since 2006 . It gets its current name from the Volendam-based recycling company Kras Recycling BV , whose CEO Henk Kras was also the president of FC Volendam.
On July 7, 2012, a concert called Votown AllStars took place for the fourth time in the Kras Stadium and is held annually.
