U21 EURO Host Stadiums

The official name of the stadium is Boris Paichadze Dinamo Arena. It is named after a distinguished player of FC Dinamo Tbilisi, and is the club’s home arena. It first was opened in 1935, boasting a capacity of 23,000. 

Following its modernization and official reopening in 1976, the capacity was raised to 78,000, though it was reduced to 54,000 when the stadium became an all-seater venue in 2007.

The largest attendance at Dinamo Arena was recorded on 3 October, 1979, when 110,000 spectators attended the UEFA European Cup match between Dinamo Tbilisi and Liverpool.

Most recently, the stadium was upgraded for the 2015 UEFA Super Cup match between Barcelona and Sevilla, with the installation of new seats, large screens and a new sound system.

Mikheil Meskhi Stadium is a multi-purpose stadium in Tbilisi, named after the famous player of Dinamo Tbilisi. The original stadium was opened in 1952, serving as the home ground for FC Locomotive Tbilisi, as well as FC Dinamo Tbilisi. 

The ground was demolished and completely rebuilt in 2001 as the first football-specific all-seater stadium in Georgia, with a capacity to hold 27,223 people. It is currently the second largest stadium in the country after the Boris Paichadze Stadium.

The venue has undergone renovation works on several occasions, most recently for the 2017 UEFA U-19 European Championship. It is currently owned by the Georgian Football Federation and hosts various matches at domestic and international level. At present, the stadium capacity is 24,600.

The Batumi Stadium is a football stadium in Batumi, Georgia, which was completed in July 2020 and opened in October 2020. The main tenant of the stadium is FC Dinamo Batumi. 

The capacity of the Stadium is 20,035. The first competitive match at the stadium was held on 21 November, 2020. 

Taking inspiration from the magnificent Georgian dances and in more loose terms from enthusiasm and cheerful attitude of local people, the stadium is clad with 76 overlapping panels, each slanted and of different height.

This simple measure invokes movement, creates rhythm and becomes a statement itself. 

The stadium used by FC Torpedo Kutaisi appeared on the city’s landscape after WWII. The design was delivered in 1948, but it took much longer than anticipated to finish, and the opening took place in 1962.

The stadium underwent major renovation in 1998 and 2010. That latest work in 2010 was the largest to date, seeing conversion into an all-seater stadium, which brought capacity down from 19,400 to just over 12,000.

With the stadium now used almost exclusively for football, it was named after the famous Georgian football player Ramaz Shengelia.
