Matija Gubec Stadium (Slovene: Stadion Matije Gubca) is a multi-purpose stadium in Krško, Slovenia.
The stadium was built in 1946 and has a capacity of 1,470 seats.[1] It is currently used mostly for football matches and has also hosted motorcycle speedway competitions since 1957.[3] During speedway competitions the standing area surrounding the track is opened for public and therefore the race can be viewed by more than 10,000 individuals.[2]
The stadium staged the final of the 1980 Speedway World Pairs Championship.[4]
From 2002 to 2019, the stadium was selected as a venue for one of the rounds of the Speedway Grand Prix, which is the sport's World Championship. The Speedway Grand Prix of Slovenia was held 14 times in total.[5]
