The capacity of most of old European stadiums was cut down when UEFA reviewed security measures after the Heysel Stadium disaster (It left out English teams to play in Europe for a number of years). Before that, Santiago Bernabeu Stadium (Madrid) had a capacity of 106 thousand and Camp Nou (Barcelona) had a capacity of 120 thousand in 1997.

Big college football stadiums have bleacher seats which can accommodate more people. Standing sections are making a comeback in Europe .

Strahov stadium in Prague was 250k 😅 It still stands but its no longer in use. Now it has 7 football pitches for training..

New stadiums in Europe started getting "capped" at around 60000~65000 due to security regulations. As an example: the old Benfica stadium in Lisbon at one point had a max capacity of more than 120k (the record attendance was between 135k to 140k in a Benfica vs Porto game in 1987), but on its last decade attendance was capped at 78k~80k due to security regulations. The new Benfica stadium (finished in 2003) was built for 65k max to fulfill even newer regulations.

I think it was more for safety and also for practicality aswell, because the issue of the stadium collapses in the 80s that mutliple teams suffered. Also a lot of this huge stadiums used to make the whole citys come to a standstill because of the massive amount of people trying to get to a very limited space and than also leave it.

Old Wembley in London, which was in use from 1923 to 2000, had a capacity of 127.000. The first event held at the stadium was the 1923 FA Cup Final on 28 April between Bolton Wanderers and West Ham United. Such was the eagerness to attend the final at the new national stadium that vast numbers of people crammed through the 104 turnstiles into the stadium, far exceeding its official 127,000 capacity. The crowds overflowed onto the pitch as there was no room on the terraces. Estimates of the number of fans in attendance range from 240,000 to well over 300,000.

Most city's in Europe especially England dont have thousands of acres empty to build massive stadiums like America . Im a geordie and our stadium is 52,000 but our fans could literally fill it twice easily but its right in the centre of the city with grade one listed buildings all around it and protected lamd

There is a minimum seat number to host some events, that is why a lot of stadium are just above the 40k seats (to host a world cup or euro match), 50k (to host a champions league final, even if it’s been more than 20 years than it’s not have been in a 60+ k stadium), 60 k to host a WC or euro semi final, or euro final. And 80k to host a WC final Some were even built or restored/upsized for such events.

We have Great Strahov Stadium in Prague, but its not used for sport events anymore. But its capacity is 250 000 (56 000 seated). It's kinda sad that it isnt used for public anymore.

A Football (Soccer) pitch is larger than an NFL pitch, meaning a Football stadium would have less capacity when compared to a similar size NFL stadium.

Have you noticed though that the European stadiums all have a roof or some form of covering over the crowd, but the US one was just wide open to the elements? It is a lot easier to build a massive stadium if you don't have to have anything over the top of it.

These all tend to be Association Football Stadiums or National Sports Stadiums. One London Stadium missing, is Twickenham, Englands national Rugby stadium which seats around 82,000. Not forgetting the national Sports stadiums in Scotland and Ireland. Might be worth looking at the total combined capacity for all Londons large Sporting arenas?

What used to be and what is now are two entirely different realities. There is also a difference between capacity and seating capacity. Per Wiki, the largest capacity associated football stadium in the world was Maracanã Stadium in Rio which hosted the final World Cup in 1950 with 199,000 official attendees. At the time of the World Cup, the stadium was mostly grandstands with no individual seats. Today after the latest renovations it’s seating capacity and maximum capacity is 78,838. Yes, more than 100,000 less. Almost all American football stadiums state seating capacity. So the University of Michigan’s seating capacity is 107,601 has almost 30,000 more seats than Rio’s.

Im from Wales UK. And i never thort our stadium would even be on this list crazy!!

basically in Europe the new stadiums that are being built hardly reach 40/50k seats, even if the teams have millions of fans the stadiums are often empty and the costs too high to maintain for structures with over 60k seats, the Stadio Olimpico in Rome, expanded for the Italy '90 World Cup it held over 100k people

An example in Germany is the "Zentralstadion" (now "Red Bull Arena") - it was built in 1954 with a capacity of almost 100k - an international game (VfB Leipzig against SSC Napoli) had pulled in over 100k visitors... Then for the 2006 world cup (2005 Confed Cup) the new stadium was built into the old one. After some renovations/refurbishments now it has a capacity of almost 48k...

Difference with some of the biggest American stadiums is they aren’t as enclosed, more bowl-like, while a lot of the european ones have roofs to keep the sound in which makes the atmosphere louder

The stadium in Gelsenkirchen has a movable roof. It can be an open stadium or a hall if it rains.

I always love that first "Hello" with that serial killer smile. hahaha Cheers.

Then again, Hampden Park (Glasgow)'s record attendance is "we stopped counting at 125000"... but that was before health and safety went mad

Michigan stadium has ruuning seats, while Nou Camp stadium, and the other european stadium, have individual seats.

You won’t find any soccer stadiums bigger than Michigan. It’s about the 3rd largest stadium of any kind in the world, edged out only by one in North Korea, presumably for loony displays of devotion to the Kim family, and a cricket stadium in India. Because it’s probably not that hard to get like 125,000 plus people to go to a cricket match in India.

This is not true, worlds biggest stadium is in Prague, Czech republic called "Strahov" and is for 250K people.

Marseille is in France which was said before Paris... Football stadiums used to have larger attendances but they will cut down for all sorts of different reasons. Stadiums are normally too big lack atmosphere. But a lot of the stadiums in the USA are crumbling due to the poor infrastructure.

But a lot of towns and cities have at least two teams and therefore 2 stadiums. We don't share stadiums across here. In Scotland if you look at Glasgow it has Celtic Park, Ibrox plus the national stadium of Hampden, it also has many stadiums close in proximity to the city of Glasgow. London has stadiums all over it. You were looking at Michigan which I would assume is a state stadium. London has Wembley, but it also has stadiums for Arsenal, Chelsea, Spurs, West Ham, Fulham Charlton, Crystal Palace and Leighton Orient and these are just the ones I can remeber. Birmingham is similair with clubs in and around the area of the city. Also our stadiums were bigger before but for safety they were cut down in size because you could no longer stand and they all had to be seated. In Europe and especially in the UK, a lot of football stadiums are in residential areas. There are houses and shops etc very close by or in many cases right next to.

The real question is how often are the stadiums sold out or nearly sold out

Love your intro buddy! It’s kind of good to hear someone asking “how are you today?”

each stadium will have around 24 or more games a season so will want to sell out every time, having 100k is just overkill really.

The biggest stadium in the world is located in Prague - Strahov with capacity of 250 000 people. Unfortunately is closed.

Fun fact about camp nou they are rebuilding the stadium, the new capacity will be 105 000 spectators. So it will be even bigger than before and bigger then the one in America! Visca El Barca

What? In Prague is Stadium Strahov 250 000 capacity. But is no longer used.

It's worth nothing the proximity of these stadiums - London for example has five stadiums between 60,000 to 90,000 and a further eight between 20,000 to 40,000 in just ONE city.

I don't like soccer but I've been to Camp nou and it's impressive

100,000 MCG Melbourne Cricket Ground is the largest in Australia just for your info

I just found Czech republic with is like brothers country for my have stadium Strahov with capacity of 220 000 and was created in 1926 and still is there and i think it even work with is like daamn since we are like nothing again other countries .

america: have like a few big stadiums in one big state, built on a parking lot in the middle of nowhere away from the cities. relocate whenever the owners feel like it while taxpayers cover the bill. europe: multiple smaller stadiums in promxity, squeezed between residential buildings in the middle of historic cities. get cruxified if owners try to relocate out of greed (see mk dons)

Back in the day before tou you had to have seats, you would get 120,000 for a game

In India, some cricket stadiums are absolutely massive.....

European stadiums are for football , we call it football as you hit the ball with the foot , American stadiums are designed for American sports (American football , baseball etc ) European stadiums don’t need to be large , as 70.000 seats it’s pretty decent stadium , it’s all about the spectacle that European teams are well known to offer

Next year Germany will be hosting the Euro 2024 in summer, I can't wait🥳🥳🥳🥳💃💃💃

The MILLENIUM STADIUM in Cardiff, Wales is the home of the WELSH RUGBY UNION team.

Not America or Europe but the MCG in Melbourne Australia holds over 100,000

Strahov stadium: Hold my beer boys....

Isnt Strahov-Prague largest stadium in the world with capacity of 250000 people?

105 thousand*

If the European fans do what they do [hence safety and reduced capacity to what they used to be] in their stadiums in American one's they would collapse! lol Mind with the added weight of the Americans, maybe their floors are more stable! lol

Spotify Camp Nou - the soccer stadium in Barcelona where FC Barcelona plays its home matches. Its total capacity is 109,815, but FIFA requirements limit this number to 99,354. However, the stadium is currently closed and will undergo renovation and reconstruction. The stadium, according to the architectural design, is expected to have a capacity of 70,000 spectators after the renovation. The facility will expand by 35,000 seats over the next two years.

After the renovation Camp Now will have a capacity of 105,000. If someone in the club would have raised an idea to reduce the capacity to 70,000 he would have been exiled from Catalunya. All seats are sold to seat holders and the waiting list is huge. The additional 5,000 seats was promised years ago and anything less than that would have ended up in a riot.

@@AL5520 read the comment again, it says that the stadium will open again with 70,000 and that within 2 years they will finish adding the remaining 35,000

The Welsh one is a rugby stadium

Camp Nou will be 104.600 spectators once finished, still far away from the US biggest one.

Well yes, also keep in mind that in the United States there is much more space available to build big unnecessary things compared to Europe like streets, highways, big cars, big pick-up, stadiums etc. 😅

You could build your stadiums on the outskirts of town too if you wanted to.

Edit should also be added that we have WAY WAY bigger stadiums that are older but security laws limit how many people you can fit. Look up strahov stadium, it can hold 250 000

There are commutes in cars for americans that are slower than bikes or the local tram/streetcar here....and it move more people for less energy cost hence the arenas are where people can get smoothly normally an dif you took bus/tram there guess what you can drink at the local vendors and not risk tickets.

@@Solus749 That's what tailgating is for, if you really want to drink alcohol before a game. Sure there are some places in the US where it's quicker to ride a bike, but that is a miniscule amount of places in the US and not even close to common. Most fans for sports teams don't live in the city that they support. I, for example, have to travel at least 2.5hours in one direction to support any of the sports teams closest to me.

Everyone knows that the biggest of them is the Great Strahov Stadium. :D

The US has 8 stadiums above 100 000. But the biggest is in India, 132 000 people can watch a game there.

Is it really that important, who's got the bigger stadiums? More interesting to know would be, how often a stadium is sold out per season. If you have a 100K capacity and only have an average of 70K attending, then it is just wasted space. The football stadiums in Europe have a 90+ attending percentage. T coin a phrase here, it's not about the size, but how to fill it :)

Australia’s biggest stadium is the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) with a capacity of 100,000. The biggest stadium in the world? “Rungrado 1st of May Stadium: 150,000 Capacity North Korea's national stadium is the largest facility in the world. The North Korean government built the stadium in response to South Korea's Olympic stadium. The construction of the national stadium took two years and five months.”

Ukraine is the biggest country that is wholly inside of Europe. Ukraine ranks the first country in Europe, with 603,628 km², followed by France with 551,695 km², Spain with 505,992 km², and Sweden with 450,295 km².

After it's refurbishment Barcelona's Camp Nu will hold 105.000

all big stadiums in the US are only used for College Football not for professional Sports.
