Stadio Ennio Tardini
Stadio Ennio Tardini is the home of Parma FC. The stadium has a capacity of 27,906 seats.
The initiative for the construction of Stadio Ennio Tardini came early 1920s from then president of the club Ennio Tardini, who however died before the works got finished in 1923. In his honour it was consequently decided to name the stadium after him.
The stadium underwent several changes in the following decades, however remained a modest stadium. It was only when Parma became more successful in the late 1980s that the stadium was expanded and further developed.
Between 1990 and 1993 three out of four stands were completely renovated, starting with the Petitot Stand in 1990, and followed by the North and South Curves in 1992 and 1993.
