It is the only stadium in the world that hosts two different UEFA Champions League-winning clubs simultaneously.
The stadium was originally named after Giuseppe Meazza, a two-time World Cup winner who played for both Milan teams.
The roof design is independent of the seating tiers, resting on the external towers rather than the bowl structure itself.
The stadium was inaugurated in 1926 with a friendly match between A.C. Milan and Inter Milan.
The pitch underwent a complete reconstruction in 2012, involving the installation of a hybrid 'Mixto' surface.
San Siro, officially the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza, is one of the world's few venues shared by two major European clubs, A.C. Milan and Inter Milan. The stadium is categorized as a UEFA Category 4 venue, allowing it to host major international finals. Its most striking structural feature is the eleven massive concrete cylindrical towers that support the roof and allow for circular movement around the stands. The facility includes a dedicated museum, the San Siro Museum, which houses historical memorabilia, jerseys, and trophies from both resident clubs. The current capacity stands at approximately 75,000 spectators. The stadium underwent its most significant modernization for the 1990 FIFA World Cup, which added the third tier and the roof structure. The pitch uses a hybrid system combining natural grass with artificial fibers to ensure durability for two professional teams.

Book stadium tour tickets in advance online to skip potential on-site queues.
Check the official match calendar before planning a visit, as the museum and tour areas often close to the public on match days.
Wear comfortable walking shoes as the tour involves climbing stairs between the tiers and walking the perimeter of the pitch.
Attempting to visit on match days without a valid match ticket, as the stadium tour is restricted or unavailable, and public access zones are cordoned off.
Closed or restricted on match days; the museum and stadium tours operate daily unless a major sporting event is scheduled.
