The Estadi de la FAF, also referred to as Nou Estadi a Encamp, is a stadium located in Encamp. It is the national stadium of the Andorra national football team, replacing the Estadi Nacional, and is used for association football.

Opened in 2025, the stadium has a capacity of 5,600.[1]

History

The stadium was built on a former camping site, with construction starting in December 2022[2] and finished in 2025, after several delays, with an estimated cost of 15 million euro.[3]

The first official match to be played at stadium was the 2025 Copa Constitució Final on 25 May 2025, where Inter Club d'Escaldes defeated rivals Atlètic Club d'Escaldes 1–0; a crowd of 684 witnessed Raul Feher scoring the first goal at the new stadium.[4] Five days later, on 30 May, the first international match took place at the new stadium, when Andorra women's team were narrowly defeated by Georgia in a UEFA Women's Nations League fixture.[5]

The stadium also hosted FC Andorra for their Primera Federación promotion play-off matches against Ibiza and Ponferradina in June 2025 as their usual home venue, the Estadi Nacional, was unavailable due to the hosting of the 2025 Games of the Small States of Europe event.[6][7]
