Gefle IF (from 2015) |
Gavlevallen is a association football stadium in Gävle, Sweden. The project was initiated by Allsvenskan side Gefle IF and Gävle Municipality to build a new 6,500 capacity stadium in the Sätraåsen area of Gävle, Sweden.[1]
History
A new stadium in Gävle had been discussed for four years prior to the announcement that Gefle IF and Gävle Municipality had agreed. The main reason for building a new stadium is the new stadium criteria by the Swedish Football Association which went into effect in 2014.[1] The new stadium will replace Strömvallen. The stadium was given its name on 30 November 2014 after a public vote initiated by Gävle Municipality had taken place.[2] The first game at Gavlevallen was played on May 20th, 2015 when Gefle IF won against GIF Sundsvall (3-1).[3]
