In total it has hosted seven World Cup fixtures, while also hosting football matches as part of the 1960 Olympic Games in Rome.
Italy's rugby team also achieved their first-ever win over South Africa at this venue in 2016, with a 20-18 victory.
It has also hosted its’ fair share of music gigs. Down the years the likes of David Bowie, Madonna and Bruce Springsteen have all performed inside the Artemio Franchi.
The stadium is organised into four stands/sections: the Main Stand, the Maratona Stand, the Fiesole Stand, and the Curva Fiesole.
Fiorentina’s more enthusiastic supporters commonly occupy the Curva Fiesole, named for the nearby hilltop town of Fiesole.
Away supporters are housed in the Curva Ferrovia, also recognised as The Railway End due to its proximity to nearby train tracks.
