Stadium Information
The Unipol Domus, home of Cagliari, is one of the newest and most modern football venues in Serie A. Opened in 2017 as a temporary but fully equipped stadium to replace the aging Sant’Elia, it stands in the Quartu Sant’Elena area just east of Cagliari. The venue features a compact, football‑specific design with steep seating that brings supporters close to the pitch, creating an intimate and energetic matchday environment.
With a capacity of around sixteen thousand, the stadium uses a natural grass surface and modular construction that allows for upgrades and future expansion. Despite its relatively young age, the stadium has already become central to the club’s identity. Matchdays at the Unipol Domus reflect the passion and warmth of Sardinian football culture.
Supporters fill the surrounding streets, car parks and gathering areas before entering through the clean, modern concourses. Inside, the noise generated by the Curva Nord carries strongly due to the steep stands and the stadium’s tight geometry. Evening fixtures are particularly atmospheric, with the lighting system highlighting the red‑and‑blue colours of Cagliari and the Mediterranean air adding a distinctive feel. Food options include classic stadium fare alongside Sardinian specialities, and hospitality sections offer comfortable viewing experiences.
Transport access includes bus routes, major local roads and nearby parking zones. Many fans choose to arrive by car due to the stadium’s location, although shuttle services operate on matchdays. Accessibility features include step‑free entrances, ramps, elevators, wheelchair platforms and adapted toilets.
The surrounding district features commercial areas, residential zones and open land, creating a relaxed but lively matchday setting. For Cagliari, the Unipol Domus represents a modern and ambitious foundation as the club looks towards long‑term development and a future permanent stadium.
