New Lusaka Stadium was a planned multi-purpose stadium in Lusaka, Zambia until Zambia backed out of hosting the 2011 All-Africa Games in 2009.[1] It would have been used mostly for football matches and would have hosted some events for the 2011 All-Africa Games. The stadium would have had a capacity of 70,000 people. It would have replaced the Independence Stadium. It would have been built along with new stadiums in Ndola (New Ndola Stadium) and Livingstone (New Livingstone Stadium).
