About

Pori Stadium (Porin stadion) is a multi-purpose stadium in Pori, Finland. It is also the former home ground of FC Jazz, FC PoPa and Musan Salama. Pori Stadium is located at Isomäki sports center some two kilometres south of the city. Stadium is sometimes nicknamed as the Stadium of Eternal Wind due to windy conditions that are common on the stadium and its surroundings. By the main entrance is a javelin thrower statue by Finnish sculptor Kalervo Kallio which is inspired by Matti Järvinen's gold medal throw at the 1932 Summer Olympics.
