GSP Stadium

Champions League, GSP Stadium Nicosia, Cyprus Strowolos, Nicosia, Cyprus GSP Stadium officially opened on the 6th of October 1999 with a friendly match between Apoel and Omonoia (3-3).GSP Stadium is the only one on Cyprus that fully complies with UEFA requirements, and is therefore also used by most other Cypriot teams for European matches. It is furthermore the home of the Cypriot national team.In 2002, a number of Israeli clubs used the stadium for their European matches due to the problematic security situation in Israel at that time.GSP Stadium is part of larger complex that includes other sports facilities. Its most characteristic feature is its wave-shaped roof that covers (part of) the main stand as well as the main stand of the adjacent athletics stadium.The GSP Stadium is located just outside Nicosia and is bordered by a motorway, other sports facilities, and some scattered residential housing and light industry. There is little around the stadium in terms of eating and drinking, so there is not much reason to head to the game much in advance.If you wish to stay close to the GSP Stadium, then you don’t get it any better than Allegra GSP Sports Center hotel, which is part of the GSP complex. There is furthermore a decent selection of hotels in the city centre of Nicosia, though most will prefer to stay in one of the popular tourist beach towns of Cyprus and rent a car to get to the game. Larnaca is the closest beach location, but party town Ayia Napa, quieter Protaras, or cultural Paphos are all very much at driving distance as well. www.stadiumguide.com Case Study: Champions League, GSP Stadium Nicosia, Cyprus Date: Oct 2014 Concept: Personal Portfolio Creatives: S.S MOV Management Ltd. +357 22 253 109 [email protected]
