Rajko Mitić Stadium, Football stadium in Dedinje, Belgrade, Serbia
Rajko Mitić Stadium is a football ground in Dedinje, Savski Venac, Belgrade, Serbia, home of Red Star Belgrade since 1963. Its oval stands hold 49,167 seats in white and red bands, with a roof along the top and a red banner with white Cyrillic lettering above the far touchline.
The arena opened in September 1963 and replaced an older football ground that had existed since the late twenties. Over the following decades, many international matches and finals took place here.
The northern section called Delije brings together the Red Star fans, who sing together and wave large flags during games. Their choreography shapes the mood on match days.
The stadium sits in Dedinje, in the Savski Venac municipality, dug partly into the ground so the lower tier lies below street level. The west stand carries the iron roof added in 1977, while the rest of the seating is open to the sky. The ground holds 49,167 seats, all of them individual chairs after the standing terraces were removed.
More than ninety-six thousand people attended a Cup Winners Cup semifinal against Ferencvaros in April 1975. That was the highest number of spectators ever recorded at this venue.
