About this venue
El Sadar Stadium is more than CA Osasuna’s home ground — it’s a compact, recently modernised venue famous for steep stands and a true “close-to-the-pitch” feel. With around 23,500 seats, its covered tiers and more enclosed bowl shape help the sound stay in, creating a punchy matchday (or concert) atmosphere that feels bigger than the numbers suggest.
Inside, you’ll find clear concourses, strong sightlines from most sections, and the practical comforts that make a visit smooth: well-placed food and drink points, easy-to-follow signage, and seating that feels noticeably more comfortable for such an intense, intimate stadium. When the crowd gets going, the acoustics do the rest — that roar is part of the El Sadar signature.
For arrival, set your navigation to Calle Sadar, s/n, Pamplona, Spain. Entrances are well distributed around the stadium, so you can reach your gate quickly from the surrounding access roads; on event days, nearby parking options and short-stay zones are typically available.

About the city
Pamplona, the lively capital of Navarre, blends tradition with a modern pace that naturally attracts fans of sport, concerts, and major events. Here, the crowd’s energy flows easily from venues into the streets, and the city’s compact center makes every outing practical and enjoyable. Visitors appreciate the sense of authenticity, as well as the fact that it’s always easy to find a good plan before or after the event itself.
One of Pamplona’s biggest advantages is its clear and efficient transport connectivity. The local bus network Transporte Urbano Comarcal (TUC), also known as villavesas, conveniently links key neighborhoods and the wider area, so reaching larger arenas and stadiums is usually stress-free. Whether you arrive by train at Estación de Pamplona-Iruña or by air via Aeropuerto de Pamplona (Noáin), you quickly slip into the city’s rhythm and can continue smoothly to your venue, either by public transport or by car.
To round out the experience, take time for a stroll through the Casco Antiguo and a short stop at Plaza del Castillo, one of the city’s most vibrant meeting points. Fans of atmosphere and greenery often visit the Ciudadela and the La Taconera gardens, and the riverside paths along the río Arga are equally relaxing. Pamplona is a city where it’s easy to combine a great night out with simple logistics and pleasant urban exploration.
