Constructed as one of the 2002 FIFA World Cup venues, Niigata Stadium celebrates its 20th anniversary this year. It has been recognized under the name of “Denka” since 2014, when Denka acquired the naming rights. Its distinctive design resembles a swan spreading its wings as if to take off.

It has also been awarded the J league Best Pitch Award six times for its well-maintained pitch. Using this stadium as a base, Denka has been actively spons oring sporting events such as the Denka Athletics Challenge Cup*1, which has been held every year since 2019.
