Dimitris Kontikakis Stadium otherwise known as Gipedo Evosmou is a football stadium located in the suburb of Evosmos in Thessaloniki, Greece. [2]
Built and opened in 1950, it can hold up to 2267 spectators. On one occasion, a record 4067 fans were seated within the precinct in 1979. [1] Two new platforms were constructed in 1994. [1] To honor former chairman Dimitris Kontikakis, the club board decided to change the stadium's name to Dimitris Kontikakis Stadium. [3]
Improvements and maintenance work were done to the stadium to preserve it for the upcoming 2015–16 season. [4]
In January 2017, a home game was adjourned until a later date as ice was present in the corners of the pitch which posed an inevitable risk to footballers. [5]
