Club: HNK Rijeka | Opening: 1912 | Capacity: 10,600 seats<\/p>\n
Stadion Kantrida officially opened on the 1st of June 1912 with a friendly between Victorije and Gra\u0111anskog. The site of the stadium was earlier used as a stone quarry.<\/p>\n
The stadium became the home of Rijeka in 1946, and got extensively renovated in the 1950s. At that time, it could hold about 25,000 spectators.<\/p>\n
Stadion Kantrida received a last refurbishment in 2010, but soon after started exploring the possibilities to build an entire new stadium in its place.<\/p>\n
In 2013, Rijeka announced concrete plans for a new modern covered stadium with a capacity of 14,000 seats. Works finally started in 2017, and Rijeka currently\u00a0play their home matches at Stadion Rujevica, which is normally their training ground.<\/p>\n
