Facilities
The Beausejour Stadium is known for its high standard facilities and is regarded by the West Indies Cricket Board as a standard for current and future venues in the Caribbean. Its outfield, a perfect oval, is predictably lush green.The stadium also features 4 floodlights for day and night matches. The stadium has 18 hospitality suites, a permanent seating capacity of 13,000 with bucket-type seating which can be increased to 20,000 for international matches. There are also two artificial pitches and two turfs for practice and warm-ups. New Zealand is scheduled to play a test against the West Indies in 2014 to mark the return to test cricket after a break of 8 years.
