Tickets for Slovakia vs Finland in Milan - Feb 21, 2026

PalaItalia Santa Giulia is more than a venue—it’s a purpose-built, multi-use arena designed to become one of Milan’s major stages for headline concerts and top-tier sport. Defined by an elliptical footprint and a suspended roof profile, the building is the work of Arup together with David Chipperfield Architects. With a crowd capacity of roughly 16,000 (a mix of seated and standing), it’s tailored for large productions while keeping the action visually close and impactful.

Inside, the experience is built around clear sightlines, comfortable seating zones, and wide concourses that keep movement smooth before and after the show. Its event-ready infrastructure is meant to shift quickly between sport and live entertainment, so acoustics, lighting, and technical setups can be tuned—from crisp, detail-focused performances to full-scale arena spectaculars—without losing the sense of control and comfort.

On the micro-location level, Via dei Pestagalli, 45, Milan, Italy sits in the Santa Giulia/Rogoredo area. A key arrival point is Milano Rogoredo (Metro M3), where you can continue by bus (e.g., line 88 to “Viale Ungheria, Largo Guerrieri Gonzaga”), by tram (e.g., 27 to “viale Ungheria / via Guerrieri Gonzaga”), or on foot depending on your route and timing.

Milan, Italy’s capital of fashion and design, is not only a symbol of style but also one of Europe’s most attractive destinations for concerts and sporting spectacles. The city offers the energy of a metropolis that stays lively well into the night, with a diverse events scene that draws visitors from across Europe. With top-level service, smooth logistics, and a recognizable atmosphere, Milan is a place where nightlife and the event experience naturally blend into one.

A major advantage of Milan is its transport infrastructure, which makes it quick and easy to reach the main arenas and stadiums. Public transport operated by ATM (metro, trams, and buses) covers key neighborhoods, while Trenord and the S Lines via the Passante Ferroviario make it simple to move between the wider area and the city. If you arrive by train, you’ll rely on hubs such as Milano Centrale, Porta Garibaldi, or Cadorna, and if you fly in, the choice is practical: Milano Malpensa (MXP), Milano Linate (LIN), or Bergamo Orio al Serio (BGY). That connectivity makes planning effortless, even when you want to combine sightseeing with an event.

Use your time to stroll around Piazza del Duomo and step inside the monumental Duomo, then continue through the elegant Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II toward streets full of city life. For a more relaxed vibe, the Navigli canal district offers walks and places to unwind, while Brera, Castello Sforzesco, and Parco Sempione deliver that classic Milanese feel. Whether you’re coming for sport or music, Milan easily turns a night out into a complete city experience.
