红山体育场

Hongshan Stadium sits at 90 Xinmin West Street in Urumqi's Shuimogou District, next to the Hongshan Gymnasium, and is the athletics ground among the four venues of the Hongshan Sports Centre. The stadium has 8,566.55 sqm of floor area on a 24,218.55 sqm site, with a standard 400 m synthetic track, a grass football pitch and a ring of terracing seating 9,600 spectators. It is equipped with the full range of athletics apparatus plus a colour electronic scoreboard and a professional sound system, so it can serve major concerts, sports meetings and competitions alike. Since opening it has taken more than 500 major competitions and performances and over 400 public-interest events, and it provides training ground for athletics, football, men's and women's basketball, wrestling, archery, judo and taekwondo squads from the Urumqi sports school, the municipal spare-time sports school and schools with traditional sports programmes. It forms part of the city's youth quality-education base and combines training, research and mass fitness in one site. During the 2025 National Day holiday the stadium opened free of charge, with residents entering simply by scanning their identity cards, and the track and pitch were used simultaneously for morning exercise, badminton and youth training, keeping both field and stands busy through the holiday. Backing onto Hongshan Park and surrounded by the residential streets off Xinmin West Street, the ground is reachable by bus from across the city and ranks among the most heavily used public athletics facilities in Urumqi's old town. Because the track is a standard 400 m oval, the ground can be set up for track-and-field meetings as well as football, and the same address and forecourt are shared with the gymnasium next door.
