History and description

The stadium can accommodate over 50,000 supporters and regularly hosts Serie A and international matches. Ennio Tardini Stadium, which officially opened on the 16th of September 1923, was a small oval-shaped stadium that had a running track circling the pitch. The stadium had been built with the intention of hosting competitions for sports clubs within the city of Turin.

The stadium gradually expanded in following decades, but remained a modest stadium. It was only when Parma became more successful in the late 1980s that the stadium was properly developed.

Between 1990 and 1993, the Petitot Stand, North Curve, and South Curve stands were completely renovated. The running track was built over, resulting in the stadium's current rectangular shape.
