Estadi Nacional, Andorra la Vella
Estadi Nacional is a modern sports stadium in Andorra la Vella used by Andorra's national teams for football and rugby matches. The venue holds just over 3,300 spectators, features an artificial playing surface with hybrid technology, and is built with glass-roofed stands and functional design.
The stadium was built between 2013 and 2014, replacing an older sports ground on the same site. The first official match took place in September 2014 against Wales, marking the start of a new era for Andorra's sports life.
Estadi Nacional carries the country's name and represents Andorra's national identity through sports. When you are here, you see how locals and visitors gather together to support their teams and share a common sporting experience.
The stadium sits centrally in Andorra la Vella and is walkable from most parts of the city, with parking available nearby for drivers. The best time to visit is on match days when the atmosphere is lively, but check online first to confirm a game is scheduled.
This is Europe's highest football pitch, sitting over 1,000 meters above sea level, which affects players and visitors with the elevation. A notable incident occurred just before a match against England in 2021 when a fire broke out in the television area but was quickly controlled and the game went ahead as planned.
