One of the world’s most modern stadiums, the Riyadh Air Metropolitano is Atlético de Madrid’s home ground. It can seat over 68000 people, and is well connected by metro to the city centre. In addition to Atletico de Madrid’s home games, it also hosts large-scale concerts and has a fascinating museum that is open to the public.
Inaugurated in September 2017, the stadium is located in the north-east of the city, near Adolfo-Suárez Madrid Barajas Airport. In 2019 it hosted the Champions League Final between Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur. Subsequently, the UEFA included the stadium in its ‘Elite Stadiums’ list, the maximum distinction from European football’s governing body.
The new stadium has also become a venue for large-scale concerts that have so far included Bruno Mars, Iron Maiden and Ed Sheeran.
