The Riyadh Air Metropolitano remains the current home of Atlético de Madrid, opened in September 2017 after the conversion of the former athletics venue La Peineta into a football stadium.

Stadium Background and Scale

With a capacity of 70,460 spectators, the ground ranks as the third-largest in Spain. It sits behind the Camp Nou and the Santiago Bernabéu. The venue stands at Avenida de Luis Aragonés, 4 in the Las Rosas neighbourhood of the San Blas-Canillejas district, northeast of Madrid and close to the M-40 ring road and Barajas airport.

Name Update and Long-Term Agreement

The current name Riyadh Air Metropolitano was adopted in October 2024 under a nine-year sponsorship deal with the Saudi airline that runs until 2033. This replaced the earlier names Wanda Metropolitano and Cívitas Metropolitano.

Guided Tours and Museum Access

The stadium offers guided tours together with access to the Atlético de Madrid museum. Adult tours cost 24 euros while the combined tour and museum ticket is priced at 25 euros. Opening hours run from 9:00 to 19:00 Monday to Thursday and from 9:00 to 15:00 on Fridays. These visits let supporters examine the facilities that host the club’s matches each season.

The tours provide direct contact with the ground where Atlético de Madrid plays its home fixtures. Supporters who book a visit can see the pitch, stands and club exhibits that trace the team’s recent history at the site.

Planning a Visit

Information on tours, prices and opening times is available through the club’s official channels listed on en.atleticodemadrid.com/tour and tour-museum.atleticodemadrid.com/organiza-tu-visita. Fans arriving from central Madrid can reach the northeast location via established road links near the M-40. The venue continues to serve as the main setting for Atlético de Madrid’s matches and related activities.
