Italy’s bid dossier for the 2032 European Football Championships dates back to April 2023. At the time, of the ten stadiums proposed to host the event, one was already ready, three had feasible but unstarted projects, and five could be adapted with appropriate interventions, but were not.
Bergamo and Atalanta: the Stadium in the City
The stadium in Bergamo, home to Atalanta’s home matches, has just completed its latest transformation, while remaining in the same location it has occupied for almost a hundred years. The architects at Studio De8 designed the transformation, carried out in stages between 2019 and 2024, working on the idea of integrating the stadium with the city by transforming the boundary between the two into a permeable and lived-in edge.
Tampere (Finland): Tammela Stadium
Hybrid stadium, miniature city, sports-residential lot. There are many definitions to describe the uniqueness of the Tammela Stadium, a project that represents the ability to imagine city spaces that are based on an objective of liveability and harmony with the context, and only then – as a consequence – are able to accommodate and integrate different functions in a completely natural way.
The development of the Philips Stadion and the city of Eindhoven
The Philips Stadion, in its evolution, reflects the architectural diversity of Eindhoven, and has transformed almost in parallel with the city, becoming today a contemporary structure with a well-defined technological soul, and perfectly integrated in what is a conurbation with just over 200,000 inhabitants. Enriched by choices increasingly oriented towards technological optimisation, such as the installation of a sound and speaker system specifically designed for this facility, and the recent introduction of the new lighting system for the grass growth of the playing field, the PSV stadium, like Eindhoven, is a virtuous example in the relationship between space and architecture.
