The ground

Built for the 1994 World Athletics Championships, it became Atlético's home in 2017 and hosts the Champions League final in 2019.

Riyadh Air Metropolitano has been the home of Atlético Madrid since 1994, and holds 70,460 spectators for football. The playing surface is grass, and the record attendance of 69,553 was set in a fixture that still gets talked about in Madrid.

For a matchday, the ground sits in Madrid and is served by local rail and bus routes; arriving 45 minutes before kick-off is the difference between a queue and a seat. Away supporters are usually housed in one corner block, and the atmosphere is loudest behind the goal at the home end.
