About the stadium
The stadium sits in northern Lisbon, a short walk from the Campo Grande station on the green and yellow metro lines. It is easy to reach and stands next to a large shopping centre, Alvaláxia.
The ground has hosted several major events, including five Euro 2004 matches and the 2005 UEFA Cup final.
The atmosphere rarely disappoints. The southern stand holds most of the supporters' groups, who are especially loud during European nights and the Lisbon derby against Benfica.
Every day except Monday, José Alvalade runs a tour of about an hour covering the main areas of the ground, from the dressing rooms to the players' tunnel, the stands and the press room. The visit also takes in the Museu Mundo Sporting.
Modern, well connected and tied to a club with real history, the stadium is worth a stop for any football fan passing through Lisbon.

The english speaking guide was very good. You could feel his passion
Do the museum and stadium combined tour, if you like football you will enjoy it ! ( no need to be Ronaldo fan ..)
One of the most important clubs in portugese history, the tour was fun and the info shared is a lot more then i thought ill get, worth the effort to go especially, and if you can catch a game too then do it!
Bought myself a sporting jersey and did the stadium tour...the guide was extremely knowledgeable and the experience was fabulous...got to go go through the players corridor, the press room, the opposing team locker room, side of the field, sat on the players bench and the owners box...then went through the museum...lots of trophies and photos...recommend!
Beautiful stadium, rich history, well structured set up. Absolutely enjoyed the tour and the guide was very knowledgeable. Only slight downside was not being able to see the main changing room but that was due to security reasons which was understandable. My favourite part was the press room. Definitely worth a visit
A great visit with my son. The tour is short with a great view of the stadium at ground level. The museum is spectacular with tons of history and a beautiful replica with the old style board room at the club. Plenty to do at all the shops on the outside periphery but within the stadium. An easy stop on the yellow line of the metro.
