Ulsan Mipo Stadium will be opened to the public in October.


On the 23rd, Ulsan City announced that it will receive Mipo Stadium in Dong-gu Bangojin Park as a free transfer, renovate the facilities, and open it to citizens in October this year.


Mipo Stadium is a sports facility established in 1999 as a condition for the construction of Ulsan College of Science, which had been managed by Hyundai Mipo Dockyard. Ulsan City, Korea Shipbuilding & Offshore Engineering, Hyundai Mipo Dockyard, and Ulsan Technical Academy Foundation agreed to transfer all the facilities to Ulsan City free of charge.


Mipo Stadium includes two soccer fields, tennis courts, basketball courts, and a clubhouse. Ulsan City plans to replace one natural grass field with two artificial turf fields and renovate the aging facilities to increase utilization.


An official from Ulsan City said, "Once Mipo Stadium is opened, it will promote citizens' health and sports activities and be used as a training site for soccer teams from other regions."



Ulsan City plans to integrate the management of Mipo Stadium and Seobu Stadium to reduce maintenance costs and ensure systematic operation of sports facilities within Bangojin Park.
