The complex is situated on the eastern side of greater Cairo and is accessible by road from the city centre and airport, forming the principal national stadium for Egyptian sports.

• Location note: Located in the Nasr City district of Cairo, it is about 10 kilometres northeast of the historic city centre and is part of a wider sports complex with training facilities and an athletics track.

Located in Nasr City, east Cairo. By metro, use Line 3 to the Stadium station (operational on event days); by car or taxi, follow Salah Salem Road to the Al‑Orouba junction. Allow time for security and heavy traffic on matchdays.

• If attending a match, arrive 60-90 minutes early-the security queues and metro connection at "Stadium" station get very busy.
