Following a 2-0 derby win over Reggiana at the old ground on the Stradone – a city centre boulevard \u2013 on Boxing Day 1922, Tardini didn\u2019t even take part in the ceremony to celebrate the first brick being laid as he wanted to wait for the final multi-sports complex to be in place. Including a cycling track and a gym for Gymnastics, the ground was designed to host many other sporting activities, such as cycling, athletics and rugby union. As such, it is no surprise to learn that the original name of Parma included \u2018multi-sports\u2019 in it.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n For the last 40 years, it has been mainly used for football, although on some occasions it has staged other sporting events. Over time, the stadium has undergone specific changes and transformation, including the removal of the cycling track and the construction of a covered grandstand (the main \u2018Petitot-Ovest\u2019 Stand), as well as the opposite \u2018Est\u2019 Stand and the \u2018Nord\u2019 and \u2018Sud\u2019 Stands behind the goals.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Owned by the city council and run in accordance with Parma Calcio 1913, the Stadio Tardini, with a capacity of 23,324 seats, is one of the oldest and most charming stadiums in Italy.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Its appeal lies in its monumental Liberty-style entrance gate and, especially, the close proximity of the stands to the pitch and its location near the city centre. Its central urban location in Parma is a beneficial and important characteristic in the continuation of customs and traditions for the Club’s supporters.<\/p>\n ” data_box_twitch=”null” data_box_instagram=”null” data_box_tiktok=”null” data_box_twitter=”null” data_box_youtube=”null” data_box_facebook=”null” ][\/swp_base_p][swp_image id=”3″ type=”image” order=”4″ name=”image” option_component_anchor=”tardini-storico” option_component_padding=”[]” data_box_image=”https:\/\/staging.parmacalcio1913.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/_heros\/tardini-vecchio-20230718070926-20231116141325.webp” data_box_image_mini=”1″ data_box_image_alt=”the stadio in the past” data_box_image_description=”null” ][\/swp_image][swp_map id=”4″ type=”map” order=”5″ name=”map” option_component_anchor=”how-to-reach-the-stadium” option_component_padding=”[]” data_map_title=”how to reach the stadium” data_map_latitude=”44.79510209570074″ data_map_longitude=”10.338443869220441″ ][\/swp_map][swp_base_p id=”5″ type=”base_p” order=”6″ name=”base_p” option_component_anchor=”how-to-reach-the-stadium” option_component_padding=”[]” data_box_title=”null” data_box_subtitle=”Motorway” data_box_text=”<\/p>\n Take the A1 motorway and exit at Parma.
