About Ramón Sánchez-Pizjuán
The Ramón Sánchez-Pizjuán holds around 42,714 in a steep, compact bowl split into Tribuna (west main stand), Preferencia (east), Gol Sur and Gol Norte / Fondo behind the goals. The Biris Norte, one of Spain's oldest ultra groups, occupy the north end and drive a fierce atmosphere. The best views are from the elevated central Tribuna and Preferencia; away fans sit high in a corner. The tight design and passionate support make European nights here especially daunting for visitors.
A steep, tightly enclosed classic that traps sound and heat, famous for one of the most intimidating atmospheres in Spain — its nickname La Bombonera de Nervión reflects the compact, boxed-in bowl. The exterior is decorated with distinctive ceramic-tile mosaics, and on big European nights the closeness of the crowd to the pitch is overwhelming.

Getting there
Transport
Metro Line 1 stops nearby at Nervión and Gran Plaza, both a short walk from the ground, and numerous bus routes serve the area. It sits in the dense Nervión district east of the historic centre, where street parking is very limited, so the metro or a taxi is easiest.
The area
The stadium is embedded in the busy Nervión neighbourhood, next to the Nervión Plaza shopping centre and surrounded by apartment blocks, bars and shops. It is a lively, urban setting a short metro ride from Seville's old town.
