Estadi Ciutat de València [2] (Valencian pronunciation: [esˈtaði siwˈtad de vaˈlensi.a]; Spanish: Estadio Ciudad de Valencia [esˈtaðjo θjuˈðað ðe βaˈlenθja]; English: City of Valencia Stadium) is a football stadium in Valencia and is the home ground of Levante UD. Built in 1969 and holding up to 26,354 spectators, it is the 23rd-largest stadium in Spain and the 4th-largest in the Valencian Community.

On 8 September 2014, the ground hosted Spain's first match of UEFA Euro 2016 qualification, a 5–1 victory over North Macedonia. [3]

The stadium was renovated in 2020, with a new roof, video scoreboards and ambient lighting installed. [4]
