Stadio Comunale Giovanni Celeste, Municipal football stadium in Gazzi district, Messina, Italy.

Stadio Comunale Giovanni Celeste is a football stadium on viale Gazzi in Messina, with a declared capacity of 11,900. Its main structure was rebuilt in reinforced concrete in 1983 and 1984, replacing wooden stands and iron pipes, and its layout was constrained by the surrounding roads and apartment blocks.

Opened in 1932 as Campo Nuovo on via Oreto, the ground took the name Stadio Gazzi from its district and hosted Messina from the 1932-33 Serie B season; the first official match, on 9 October 1932, was a 2-0 win over Modena. In July 1948 the city council renamed it after Giovanni Celeste, a Regia Marina lieutenant and flag-bearer of the Peloro, on the initiative of the newspaper L'eco dello Sport. Messina played here until 5 June 2004, a 3-0 win over Como that sealed promotion to Serie A.

The north curve was named after Tonino Currò, a Messina supporter killed by a firework thrown from the away section during the 2001 promotion play-off final against Catania; no culprit was ever identified. The stadium's record paid attendance, 22,418, came on 2 February 1964 against Milan.

The stadium stands on viale Gazzi in the Gazzi district. Renovation work begun in August 2024, funded with €2.6 million from Italy's National Recovery and Resilience Plan, covered the covered stand, the south curve, changing rooms, an internal gym, lighting and photovoltaic panels, with completion listed in May 2026 and testing under way.

On 5 June 1982 the stadium hosted a UEFA Euro 1984 qualifier between Malta and Iceland, played in Messina because Malta's ground in Gżira was unsuitable; Malta won 2-1 before 1,271 spectators. The north curve is named after Tonino Currò, a Messina fan killed by a firework thrown from the away section during the 2001 play-off final against Catania.
