History and description

The first stadium at the site of the current Generali Arena was built in 1921 and was called Stadion Letná. It consisted of open terraces and had a modest capacity of just over 10,000 people. Construction on the new covered main stand began in 1934 after the stadium burned down.

The reconstruction included the installation of new stands, floodlighting, and a new football pitch. In 1969, Letná Stadium underwent a major reconstruction that added new stands, floodlighting, and a brand-new football pitch.

The stadium underwent extensive renovations in 1994 and has undergone a few more refurbishments since then.

The stadium was renamed Toyota Arena in 2003 after a sponsorship deal, and then AXA Arena in 2007. It was renamed Generali Arena in 2009, but changed to the longer Generali ?eská poji??ovna Arena in 2020.

The Generali Arena is one of the most frequent venues for the Czech national team to play.

How to get to the Generali Arena

The Generali Arena is located in Letna Parks just north of Prague's old town. The walk from the Old Town Square takes about 20 minutes. Walk north over Parizska Street, cross the Vltava River, and then Letna Park. The walk from Prague Castle takes about 20 minutes as well. If you are from the southern part of the city centre or Prague's main railway station (Hlavni), you can also use the metro. Take the green metro line C from, for example, stop Muzeum, and get off at stop Hradcanska. From there it is a 5- to 10-minute walk.

Trams also run to the Airport (line 10) and to the south of the city (lines 20 and 29).

Eat, drink, and sleep near the Generali Arena

The area around the GENERALI Arena is mostly residential, and while you may find the odd bar or restaurant, it is likely a better idea to eat and drink in the old town and make the walk to the stadium before the match. The adjacent Letna Park is nice on a summer's day. The Art Hotel Prague is located next to the arena and has been well reviewed. Hotel Letna is an alternative located nearby, but has poorer reviews. The Belvedere Hotel and Parkhotel Praha are also close by, while Hostel Dakura is a budget option. Hotel Hoffmeister may be more to your liking if you have more money to spend.

The fans were friendly, since we couldn't understand any Czech. Unlike in the UK, you can drink at the stadium's stand.

I went to this Europa League qualifier game with my partner in August for £5 a ticket. The beer is cheap and the fans were friendly, given that we could not speak Czech. Unlike in the UK, you can drink in the stands at these types of games.

Admission can be easily purchased at the gate, but be aware that queues are quite big and try to arrive early. Smoking is allowed outside and you can enjoy a local beer while watching the game. The fans are very passionate and sing for the entire match. The ground is in a very nice city, and it's a great atmosphere to watch a game in.
