Paul Biya Omnisports Stadium (named for the long-ruling president of Cameroon), referred to as the Olembe Stadium and Sport Complex (Stade d'Olembé), is a multi-purpose stadium spanning 84 acres (400,000 sq.m) in Olembé locality, Yaoundé. It is the largest stadium in Cameroon by capacity, holding 60,000 spectators, and is the 9th-largest stadium in Africa by the same measure. Located roughly 13 km from Yaoundé city-centre, the stadium is part of a complex which includes two annex stadia training grounds; a gymnasium with handball, basketball, volleyball and tennis courts; an Olympic-size swimming pool; a shopping mall, museum and cinema; and 5-star hotel with 70 rooms available.
Olembe Stadium was one of the locations chosen to host the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations held in Cameroon, which took place in 2022 because of pandemic-related postponements. It held the opening ceremony and game – which the Cameroon team won 2–1 against Burkina Faso – and the closing ceremony and final, which was held between Senegal and Egypt; Senegal won the tournament.
