History



Construction


The ground was broken for the stadium on 22 December 2016 by Prime Minister Daniel Kablan Duncan, with the presence of a China Ambassy in Ivory Coast representative. It's expected to be built within 34 months and opened in 2019.[4][5]

In November 2019, the stadium was near its completion. It was expected to be delivered to the Government of Ivory Coast in February 2020 at later.[6] However, there was a delay due to the weather and health issues, including the COVID-19 issue.[2]


Inauguration


The stadium was inaugurated on 3 October 2020 and was named after President Alassane Ouattara. Many officials and the Chinese ambassador in Ivory Coast were also present. A friendly match was played between the two most popular clubs in Ivory Coast, ASEC Mimosas and Africa Sports d'Abidjan. ASEC Mimosas won the match 2–0.[7][8][9]
