Johan Cruijff ArenA

It took a while, but in 2018 the name change was a fact. The Amsterdam ArenA is now really called the Johan Cruijff Arena. A tribute to perhaps the most famous Dutchman ever. With 55,500 seats, it is the largest football stadium in the Netherlands. Inside the skyboxes you will find the (private) café Johan, where Ajax business contacts can eat and drink for charity; the proceeds go to the Cruyff Foundation.

The Johan Cruyff Arena (Dutch Johan Cruijff Arena, until 2018 Amsterdam Arena) is a football stadium with a closable roof in the Zuidoost district in the Dutch capital Amsterdam. With currently 55,865 seats, it is the largest stadium in the Netherlands. The football club Ajax Amsterdam plays its home games in the stadium. On July 1, 2018, the arena received its current name in honor of Johan Cruyff. In 2012, the Ziggo Dome event hall with 17,000 seats was opened in the immediate vicinity and is mainly used for concerts.
