Jayathilaka Stadium

4.2(312 reviews)

About

On Sri Lanka, Jayathilaka Stadium stands at 3G2P+8J3, Dimbula Road, Nawalapitiya, in the island's central hill country. Kandy, Colombo, Galle and the coastal towns lie within reach by road and rail.

Jayathilaka Stadium is known around Nawalapitiya as a sporting ground, carrying a 4.2 out of 5 average across 312 reviews. First-time visitors should expect a local matchday atmosphere rather than a tourist attraction. The stadium's standing rests on the steady turnout of spectators from the town and the surrounding estates.

Reaching the stadium from Kandy or Colombo is straightforward along the main hill-country roads. Galle, Negombo and Bentota sit on the coast for anyone continuing a tour of the island. Negombo offers the closest coastal break for travellers heading west afterwards.

The hill country in central Sri Lanka is cooler and wetter than the coastal plains, so a layer is worth packing. The southwest monsoon brings rain from about May to September, and the northeast monsoon from October to January. Full-moon Poya days are public holidays, which can shift the timing of local fixtures.
