Stadionul Francisc von Neuman, also known as Stadionul UTA, is a football stadium in Arad, Romania. It is built on the site of the former Stadionul Francisc von Neuman. The stadium was opened on the 28th of August 2020 and currently serves as the home for UTA Arad of the Liga I.[1]
It is named after a local Jewish Hungarian aristocrat, Francisc von Neumann, a baron who owned several businesses in Arad and personally sponsored the construction of the old stadium and the founding of the team.[2]
The first match at the stadium was a Liga I game played between UTA Arad and Voluntari, which ended in a goalless draw.[3] Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the game was played without spectators.
