History and description

The stadium underwent several expansions over the years and in 2006 it was given its current name. The ground has been used for a wide array of events, most notably football matches and concerts. The stadium officially opened more than a year later in March 1935 with an international match between the B-sides of Italy and Austria.

Initially, the stadium was called Stadio Edda Ciano Mussolini and was renamed Yankee Stadium after the Second World War when it was used by the Americans.

It currently has a capacity of just over 20,000 spectators. The Stadio Armando Picchi stadium has barely changed since it was first built in the early twentieth century. In the mid 2000s some small renovations were done to make it compliant with league requirements, but currently it has a capacity of just over 20,000 spectators.
