Football stadiums located by bodies of water are not only a charming aspect of the game but also offer unique experiences to fans. In Britain and across Europe, many historic venues like Shrewsbury Town's former Gay Meadow and Atletico Madrid's Vicente Calderon have been lost to time. Today, stadiums like Everton's new Bramley-Moore Dock and Como's Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia exemplify this trend, with the latter set to increase its capacity to accommodate more fans, highlighting the enduring appeal of waterfront grounds in football culture.
Everton Stadium will be a new home for Everton FC, built at Bramley-Moore Dock, with a capacity of nearly 53,000 and a venue for Euro 2028.
Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia in Como has a stunning location by Lake Como, and plans are in place to increase its capacity from 10,000 to 15,000.
Many football stadiums around the world are located near water, offering unique experiences reminiscent of historic venues like Shrewsbury Town's old Gay Meadow.
The history of stadiums near water includes landmark sites like Atletico Madrid's Vicente Calderon, a former venue by the Manzanares river.
