The Bernabeu, Spain

Few stadiums are as iconic in the world as the Bernabeu. Home to Real Madrid, one of the most decorated and legendary teams in world football, the Bernabeu is a breathtaking sight to behold where many of the greatest players in history have played. It has been Real Madrid’s home stadium since 1947 and has a seating capacity of a whopping 81,004.

The Allianz Arena, Germany

Many football stadiums are historic, but if you want to see what a modern-day football stadium looks like then the Allianz Arena is a great choice. Home to FC Bayern Munich, the Allianz Arena has only been open since 2005 and is a breathtaking example of modern technology and architecture. Bayern Munich are also one of the most dominant teams in Europe and there is an incredible atmosphere at live matches.

Anfield

England boasts many of the best and most historic stadiums in the world. It is hard to beat Anfield, though, which is home to one of the most successful teams of all-time - Liverpool FC. Many players state that Anfield is the hardest place to play because the atmosphere is so intense due to the passionate fans and relatively small size. This is also a chance to see some of the best players in the world play, such as Mohammed Salah who is the main man in Liverpool.

La Bombonera, Argentina

La Bomonera in Buenos Aires is one of the most famous stadiums in the world due to its unique shape with one flat stand (the name translates to chocolate box). It is also the home of Boca Juniors - one of the most exciting teams in the world with incredibly passionate fans.

Maracana, Brazil

Maracana in Rio de Janeiro is another excellent stadium in South America where Fluminense and Flamengo play. It is also a legendary stadium due to the fact that it hosted the 1950 World Cup Final between Brazil and Uruguay.

If you are a football fan then these will all be pilgrimages to make that will show you some of the most iconic football stadiums in the world.
