About this venue
Todor Proeski National Arena is one of North Macedonia’s most important large-scale sports venues and a national setting for football matches, athletics competitions and major music events. Its expansive stands surround the pitch and athletics track, while a capacity of more than 30,000 spectators gives the stadium the scale required for international fixtures and concerts. The distinctive oval form and broad roof structure create a compact architectural impression despite the size of the complex.
Inside the arena, the elevated stands provide wide views towards the field, while the arrangement of the seating sections offers different perspectives, from positions closer to the action to higher levels with a panoramic overview of the stadium. During major matches, the enclosed arrangement of the stands helps create an intense atmosphere, while concert stage layouts, sound systems and audience areas are adapted to the requirements of each event.
The stadium is located at Aminta Treti, Skopje, North Macedonia, beside the City Park area and close to the wider city centre. Organised coach parking is available in the immediate vicinity of the main entrances, while access and parking arrangements for other vehicles can vary according to the event, making an early arrival advisable.

About the city
Skopje, the dynamic capital of North Macedonia, blends lively urban energy with a rich calendar of sports and music events. The city is known for its relaxed vibe and warm hospitality, offering visitors a great balance between major shows and everything you need for a short city break. Whether you’re arriving for a big match or a concert, Skopje often surprises people with how quickly you can slip into the city’s rhythm and how easily an entire trip can be planned around an event.
For getting around with minimal hassle, the backbone is the public bus network operated by JSP Skopje, which connects most key areas without overthinking routes and transfers. If you arrive by train or coach, the main gateway is the Transportation Center Skopje, combining the central railway and bus terminals and making it easy to continue toward arenas and stadiums. For flights, Skopje International Airport is the primary entry point, and the link to the city helps you time your arrival so you can reach the gates comfortably and avoid last-minute rush.
If you have time before or after the event, Macedonia Square and the Stone Bridge are an ideal starting point for a walk, while the Vardar River gives the city its distinctive backdrop and a pleasant riverside route. For a more authentic feel, step into the Old Bazaar, where scents, crafts, and local life blend together, and finish with the view from the Kale Fortress for a panoramic wrap-up. In that way, a visit to Skopje easily becomes a complete experience—an event as the main reason to come, and the city as the bonus that stays with you.
