Dinamo Stadium is a multi-purpose stadium in Bucharest, Romania. It is currently used mostly for football matches and is the home ground of Dinamo București.

The stadium is being renovated for EURO 2020, which means that Dinamo will play at the Arena Națională.

History

The stadium was built in 1952. In 2001, floodlights were added, and in 2006 a major renovation of the stadium began, enlarging the VIP section, and raising the capacity of the Tribune 2 stand. However, due to lack of funding the renovation has still not been completed. There are now plans to build a new arena, but administrative problems make progress very slow-going. New seats and a new scoreboard were added.[when?] Many important matches were held here including Dinamo-Everton or Dinamo-Bayer Leverkusen.

Romanian national football team
