Ramón Sánchez-Pizjuán Stadium
Two European finals and a World Cup semi-final on one pitch — more big-match history than almost any stadium in Spain.

The ground hosted the 1982 World Cup semi-final between West Germany and France, the 1986 European Cup Final between Steaua București and Barcelona, and the 2022 Europa League Final between Eintracht Frankfurt and Rangers. Spain's national side has never lost here. At 42,714 seats it is the third-largest stadium in Andalusia, with an announced expansion project that will take it to 47,000.
What to look for
- The compact bowl shape that locals call 'La Bombonera de Nervión' — the same nickname as Boca Juniors' famous Buenos Aires ground, applied here because of the Nervión neighbourhood where it sits
- The stadium name itself: a tribute to club president Ramón Sánchez-Pizjuán, who served Sevilla FC until his death in 1956
- Any expansion works on the exterior — the club announced in May 2018 a project to add roughly 4,300 seats to the current 42,714
The stadium is in the Nervión district of Seville; check Sevilla FC's fixture list before visiting, as access to the interior depends on match days or official club tours.
