Reale Arena

Anoeta was rebuilt into the Reale Arena in 2019, shrinking capacity but adding a roof and a much steeper lower tier.

Reale Arena has been the home of Real Sociedad since 1993, and holds 39,500 spectators for football. The playing surface is hybrid grass, and the record attendance of 37,800 was set in a fixture that still gets talked about in San Sebastián.

For a matchday, the ground sits in San Sebastián 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.
