Tickets for Dinamo Zagreb vs Rijeka in Zagreb - Apr 18, 2026

Stadion Maksimir is more than a football ground—it’s one of Zagreb’s most recognizable stadiums, defined by its classic bowl of stands and the big-match feeling it creates. As a regular stage for major fixtures and occasional concerts, Maksimir delivers a close-to-the-pitch atmosphere, and its capacity depends on the event setup and safety conditions, reaching 35,000+ seats in a full configuration.

Inside, the experience is driven by the compact sightlines and the way crowd noise carries around the stands. Clear sectoring and well-marked access points help visitors find their way, while matchday amenities—basic refreshments and service points—keep things convenient so the focus stays on the action.

You’ll find the stadium at Maksimirska cesta 128, Zagreb, Croatia. The easiest approach is to head directly toward the entrances along Maksimirska Road, with tram stops and pedestrian access close by, while parking is limited, so arriving early is a smart move for high-demand events. For a broader overview of getting around the city beyond the stadium area, see the general transport notes further down the page.

Zagreb, Croatia’s lively capital, is not only the country’s administrative and cultural heart, but also an increasingly popular European destination for top-tier sports and music events. The city blends a relaxed Central European feel with the energy of a modern metropolis, so going to a concert or a match is often just the start of the overall experience. Visitors are drawn by the variety of programs, the welcoming atmosphere in vibrant neighborhoods, and a wide choice of places to enjoy before and after the event.

One of Zagreb’s biggest advantages is its practical, easy-to-navigate infrastructure: the network of Zagreb Electric Tram (ZET) lines and buses quickly connects you to key city points, including arenas and stadiums, without complicated transfers. If you arrive by train, Zagreb Glavni kolodvor sits close to the center and links smoothly with public transport, while for air travel the main gateway is Zračna luka Franjo Tuđman Zagreb (Zagreb Franjo Tuđman Airport). If you travel by coach, Autobusni kolodvor Zagreb makes arrivals even easier, and thanks to solid connections, reaching most event venues remains straightforward and fast.

When you’re not in the stands or the crowd, Zagreb offers a great “tourist bonus”: stroll across Ban Jelačić Square, explore the historic Upper Town and Kaptol, then head down to the promenades and terraces in the center where the city’s rhythm is at its best. For outdoor downtime, there’s Jarun and Maksimir, and along the Sava River it’s easy to slow down before an evening out. Add the city’s well-known coffee culture, diverse food scene, and accommodation for every budget, and you get a place where an event naturally turns into a weekend escape or a short city break.
