Ngahue Reserve is a multi-purpose stadium in the suburb of St Johns in Auckland, New Zealand. It is used for association football matches and is the home of Oceania Football Confederation.[2] It is also used as a training ground for Eastern Suburbs.[3]
Ngahue Reserve was the venue of the 2022 OFC Champions League.[4]
Originally Ngahue Reserve was a landfill that consisted of composting rejected materials. In 1986 the landfill was closed and became a cleanfill site. The cleanfill site did not include putrescible and organic material and metal objects unlike the landfill previously. In 1989 the site was capped until 1997 before being recontoured.[5]
In 2014 the two artificial pitches were completed. The OFC facilities were not completed until the following year.[2]
