Stadium Konueira is a multi-purpose stadium located in the East End district of central Burnaby. It is owned and operated by the Public Installations Directorate, an agency of the Konueira regional government. The stadium regularly hosts Kelssek Football League and Rugby Superleague matches as home ground of Burnaby SC and Burnaby Lions respectively.

Opened in 138 FE with a capacity of 55,000, the stadium was renovated and refurbished in 182 to expand the capacity to over 60,000 and install a retractable roof, which is equipped for light shows with a particular eye for hosting high-profile music events, along with a centre-hung high-definition scoreboard.

It has hosted the Patriotes Cup final three times and is occasionally used for home matches of the Kelssek national football team. The stadium was used for several Cup of Harmony 77 matches, most notably the round of 16 match between Poafmersia and Busoga Islands, a quarterfinal between Squornshelous and Vdara, and the third-place playoff in which Mercedini won 4-2 against Astograth. It hosted matches in World Cup 94 most notably the quarterfinal match which saw Farfadillis win 3-2 against Pemecutan, and was selected to host the IFCF Champions League 16 final.
