New Antalya Stadium, multi-purpose stadium in Antalya, Turkey
New Antalya Stadium is a covered football ground in Antalya, a coastal city in southern Turkey, built to seat around 33,000 spectators. The building also contains a shopping area, several cafes, prayer rooms, and six dedicated VIP gates spread across the venue.
The stadium was built to give Antalyaspor a modern home ground, replacing older and smaller facilities that the club had previously used in the city. Since opening, it has hosted league and cup matches and gradually become a regular fixture in the city's sporting life.
The stadium is home to Antalyaspor, a club with a strong following in the city, and fans often arrive wearing red and white on match days. The area around the gates fills up well before kickoff, with groups gathering to eat and talk before heading inside.
On match days, arriving early is a good idea because the entrance areas and parking fill up fast. The ground-floor cafes and shops are open to all visitors, while VIP boxes on the upper levels come with private balconies and separate amenities.
The roof is fitted with solar panels that produce electricity for the building, which is unusual for a football ground of this size in Turkey. Most visitors notice them only when leaving and looking back at the roof from outside.
