Arena Civica

About

Arena Civica (Italian pronunciation: [aˈrɛːna ˈtʃiːvika]), officially Arena Gianni Brera, is a multi-purpose stadium in Milan, Italy, which was opened on 18 August 1807. One of the city's main examples of neoclassical architecture, today it mainly hosts football and rugby union games, concerts and cultural events. The stadium can hold 10,000 to 30,000 spectators. The Arena was the home pitch for Inter Milan from 1930 to 1947 and has been the home of Inter Women since 2023. It is also home to Milan's third football team, Brera, as well as being the host venue for an annual athletics meeting – the Notturna di Milano. Until 2011, the Arena was the home ground of Amatori Rugby Milano, a rugby union club founded in 1927 that won 18 Italian Championships.
