Stadio Mino Favini, Football stadium in Meda, Italy
Stadio Mino Favini, also known as campo 1, is the main pitch of a municipal sports complex at the northern edge of Bosco delle Querce park in Meda. Its natural grass field measures 105 by 63 metres, ringed by a six-lane athletics track fully renewed in 2022. About 2,500 seats fill three partly covered stands set side by side along the western side, the southernmost holding 803 away fans.
The stadium stands at the northern edge of Bosco delle Querce Natural Park, created on the former site of the ICMESA factory following the 1976 Seveso disaster. Its location ties the sports facility to the area's industrial past and subsequent environmental recovery.
The stadium was named in June 2023 after Mino Favini, a local football player who later became an influential sports director and talent scout. His legacy remains connected to the site where the community gathers for matches.
The Favini, also called "campo 1", sits in a sports complex with two more football pitches (one grass, one calcestre gravel), a velodrome, pools, indoor and outdoor tennis courts, gyms and long jump, high jump and shot put facilities. The athletics track was fully renewed in 2022. The Luigi Busnelli stadium lies just north, beyond the SP35 and the Milan-Chiasso railway.
On 26 September 2012 the stadium hosted an under-19 match between Inter and Borussia Dortmund in the NextGen Series, won 1-0 by the Milanese side. The ground also regularly hosts charity events and local festivals, not only football.
