It is historically known as one of the largest stadiums in Vietnam by spectator capacity, despite its modest modern infrastructure.
The pitch is surrounded by an athletics track, making it a primary venue for regional track and field competitions in the Mekong Delta.
The stadium was once a fortress for the former Can Tho FC during their time in the V.League 1, the top tier of Vietnamese football.
The facility often hosts non-sporting major events, such as large-scale trade fairs and outdoor musical performances during regional holidays.
Can Tho Stadium is the largest multi-purpose sports facility in the Mekong Delta region of Vietnam, historically serving as the home ground for the Can Tho Football Club. Located in the Cái Khế ward, the venue features a substantial seating capacity designed for large-scale sporting events and regional cultural festivals. The architecture follows a classic concrete stadium layout with an open-air pitch surrounded by tiered concrete bleachers. It serves as a central hub for the local community's fitness activities, including morning exercise and organized athletics. The stadium is managed by the Can Tho Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism.

Visit during the early morning hours to observe the local community engaging in collective exercise and jogging routines.
Bring sun protection as the seating areas are largely exposed to the elements.
Check local community boards or social media pages for event schedules, as the stadium does not have a formal daily visitor program.
Do not expect modern amenities or high-end facilities; the stadium is a functional, older concrete structure.
Open daily for community access, but subject to closure during private events or professional match days.
Dress modestly if visiting during a public community event; ensure sports attire is appropriate for public exercise areas.
