Whats the best stadium in the world?

ClarkeKent

Having been watching the fantastic Marseille stadium in the Euros and saw some awesome clips of the new San Francisco 49s stadium at night when full.

Got me thinking. What is the best stadium in the world for sheer awesomeness/atmosphere?

Interested to hear thoughts on what you think it may be and any great stadium experiences

I heard Seattle Seahawks have a fantastic atmosphere in the NFL. There crowd is called the 12th Man. I watched a documentary about them a while ago but can't find it or have permission to post it yet!

A lot depends on whether you are looking for the best building or best atmosphere?


The Nou Camp in Barcelona seats 100,000 people.


Some American college teams have stadiums over 100,000


But for sheer experience you cannot beat watching the Green Bay Packers at Lambeau Field, when the temperature is minus 20 and its snowing....

MCG in Melbourne for AFL Hawthorn Vs Essendon
AT&T stadium in Texas for Wrestlemania
Allianz Arena in Munich for Champions League football

Croke Park, Dublin, All Ireland final day. (Gaelic football or Hurling)


Atmosphere inside and outside the ground is electric, and friendly

Only been to 1 which is the Nou Camp but wasnt to to see a match so didn't get to experience the atmosphere. I'm sure there's other stadiums out there that are better.

I'm not sure if they still hold it, but they broke the world record for the loudest fan noise there.

As for atmosphere, the Western Terrace at Headingley during an England Cricket match takes some beating!

Millennium stadium, when the Welsh are in full voice, singing their hearts out.

I'm talking about real sport of course, so any football stadium is ruled out.
