The grass track is 1,810 m long and 20 m wide, allowing for 450-metre races without turn.
In recent years it became a popular concert venue. Among the first events was Pilsen Rock, a rock festival with national and international artists. Due to its high capacity, the place is a good scenario for performers visiting this city.
