Arena Lviv

UEFA EURO 2012's smallest venue combines traditional national architecture with a modern slant.
 

UEFA Capacity: 30,000
Record attendance: 34,000 (Ukraine 2-1 Austria on 15/11/2011)
Tenants: FC Karpaty Lviv tbc
Opened: October 2011

Marko Dević's last-minute strike helped Ukraine open the new Arena Lviv with a 2-1 victory against Austria on 15 November 2011, despite being down to ten men.

• The foundations in this area of parkland on the outskirts of the city were laid in February 2009.

• The opening ceremony on 29 October 2011 featured 2,000 performers – actors, dancers, acrobats and artists – in a theatrical production dedicated to the history of Lviv. Other performers included 2004 Eurovision Song Contest winner Ruslana and American songstress Anastacia.

• Ukraine's fourth and final UEFA EURO 2012 stadium combines traditional national architecture with a modern slant, its two-tiered stands offering perfect sightlines. A transparent roof protects fans from the elements.
