Fukuoka Hakatanomori Stadium, also known as Level 5 Stadium, has 22,500 seats, many of which are so close to the field that the audience really feels they are part of the action.
A practical factor is the stadium's proximity to Fukuoka International Airport, which is only a 15-20 minute walk away. Both football and rugby matches are regularly held at Fukuoka Hakatanomori Stadium. Games were also played here during the 2019 Rugby World Cup.
The stadium is located in Higashi HiraoPark, which includes a baseball and tennis facility, an athletics stadium and the "Accion Fukuoka", which consists of a hall and a swimming stadium.
