EM Stadion Wals-Siezenheim (reconstruction) - 30,000 capacity.

The EM Stadion Wals-Siezenheim is located in Wals-Siezenheim, which is just outside of Salzburg.

It opened in March 2003 and is the home ground of Red Bull Salzburg.

The stadium's original seating capacity was 18,200.

By June of 2008, however, that will be expanded to 30,000 for the 2008 European Football Championship.

It was the only stadium in the Austrian Bundesliga that has artificial turf.

Instead of grass, matches were played on "Polytan's FIFA 2-Star Recommended 40 mm surface Ligaturf with a 25 mm elastic layer," which was installed in 2005. Since the summer of 2008 natural turf has been used.
