Stadium Information
Gewiss Stadium, historically known as Stadio Atleti Azzurri d’Italia, is the home of Atalanta and one of the most rapidly modernised stadiums in Italian football. Located in the Borgo Santa Caterina district of Bergamo, the venue first opened in 1928 and has undergone major redevelopment since Atalanta secured long‑term ownership.
The ongoing project has transformed the stadium into a contemporary, football‑specific arena with upgraded stands, new roofing and improved sightlines.
With a capacity of around twenty‑four thousand, the stadium features a natural grass surface and a compact bowl that brings supporters close to the pitch. Matchdays in Bergamo carry a proud, energetic atmosphere shaped by Atalanta’s recent rise in Italian and European football.
Supporters gather across the surrounding streets, cafés and residential areas before moving toward the Curva Nord Pisani, the heart of the club’s vocal support. The renovated stands enhance acoustics, creating a lively environment even with the stadium’s modest size. Evening fixtures are particularly striking, as the new lighting systems illuminate the updated façade and the club’s black‑and‑blue colours fill the stands.
Concourse areas have been expanded and modernised, improving comfort and circulation. Access to Gewiss Stadium includes bus routes, local roads and pedestrian paths linking
the venue with Bergamo’s city centre. Parking exists in surrounding zones but is limited, leading many supporters to use public transport or walk. Accessibility improvements are part of the
redevelopment and include step‑free routes, ramps, elevators, adapted toilets and dedicated wheelchair seating.
The surrounding district offers a mix of residential streets, local shops and neighbourhood cafés that contribute to the intimate matchday culture. For Atalanta, Gewiss Stadium
represents both historical continuity and a modern platform for the club’s ambitions.
