Dunoon Stadium
Dunoon Stadium
Dunoon Stadium is the town's main sports ground, tucked just north of the town centre off Argyll Street next to Cowal Community Hospital. It has a grass pitch ringed by a cinder track and a single grandstand, with a natural bowl shape giving good views from the surrounding banking.
It's home ground for Dunoon Amateurs F.C., Cowal RFC (rugby) and Dunoon Camanachd (shinty), and once had capacity for up to 50,000 spectators thanks to its natural terracing - among the largest of any junior football ground in Scotland.
Its biggest moment each year is as the focal point of the Cowal Highland Gathering (the Cowal Games) on the last weekend of August, one of the world's largest Highland games, drawing pipe bands, dancers and athletes from across the globe.
