The National Stadium - the Green Jewel - is located in North-East Kernansquillec City. The stadium is linked to the nearby town center and the city's international airport by a direct metro line known as the "Green Line". Shuttles arrives every couple of minutes on match days linking the city center to the stadium in about 6 minutes, with the stadium-airport link about 8 minutes long. City buses also link the stadium to the whole capital and a 25 000 capacity underground car park is a mere 300 meters away from the ground.

The all-seater stadium has a capacity of 110 000. A section of up to 10 000 seats can be reserved for away fans, however less are usually provided. All of the stadiums seats are either green or white.

The Stadium, which was built in 1995, has been refurbished only once in 2036 when damage done during the Great War was repaired and an additional 10 000 seats added. Internal facilities, such as changing rooms along with medical and security facilities were also refurbished with state-of-the-art equipment.

The Stadium hosts all of Kernansquillec's home internationals as well as the National Cup final and playoff finals. The Under 21s also play their home ties here. The stadium has also hosted the finals of the 53rd Series B Champions’ Cup as well as the final of the 8th Youth Cup. The stadium also helped host games during the 20th Copa Rushmori including a round of 16 tie between Electrum and Darmen with the latter winning 2-1.
