History

In 2014, the stadium underwent partial reconstruction as electric floodlights were installed.[1] Construction of the main stand began during the same year, and was opened in early 2016.[2] Following Vereya's promotion to the Bulgarian First League, the construction of another stand opposing the main one began in the summer of 2016, and was completed by September.[3]

In 2017 the stadium hosted the Amateur Football League Cup final. It was also chosen as the venue for the 2018 Bulgarian Supercup final on July 5, 2018, which was contested between Ludogorets Razgrad and Slavia Sofia.[4]

gollark: On the JS side Pug is quite neat, as it allows inlining JS expressions and has a very terse syntax.
gollark: I can avoid adding another beeous language and use the full power of arbitrary Python features.
gollark: HTML is verbose, and we can see that Jinja2 has basically pythonous control structures now but ad-hoc and less expressive.
