- Description:
The Sir Vivian Richards Stadium in North Sound, Antigua, is a modern cricket venue built for the 2007 ICC Cricket World Cup to replace the old Antigua Recreation Ground.
Named after West Indies legend Sir Vivian Richards, it honors one of the game’s most iconic batsmen.>With a base capacity of 10,000—expandable to 20,000 for major events—the stadium features two main stands, advanced media facilities, hospitality boxes, quality practice areas, a fitness center, and floodlights for day‑night matches across all formats.
It has hosted numerous high‑profile West Indies fixtures and was a key venue during the 2024 ICC Men’s T20 World Cup. Though the pitch has drawn mixed reviews for its variable pace and bounce, the stadium remains central to Antigua’s cricketing identity and its presence on the global stage.
