Stade Saputo

Story

Saputo Stadium is a soccer-specific stadium at Olympic Park in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. The stadium opened on May 21, 2008, and is the current home of the Montreal Impact. The stadium is built on the former practice track and field site on the grounds of the 1976 Summer Olympics, while the stadium's west side has a view of Olympic Stadium's inclined tower. It has a capacity of 20,801, making it the second-largest soccer-specific stadium in Canada, after BMO Field in Toronto.ConstructionThe stadium cost to build, with $7.5 million paid by the Saputo family and the rest financed on a 25-year term. Saputo Stadium is now the Impact's administrative headquarters and also includes a training field, 34 corporate suites and full player welfare areas. The complex covers approximately 1600000sqft. It was designed and fabricated by Dant Clayton Corporation and built by Broccolini Construction Inc.The stadium features a natural grass playing surface and was reportedly preferred over BMO Field for this reason by members of the Canada men's national soccer team. BMO Field has since installed a heated and fully irrigated natural grass field similar to those found in the English Premier League.Anticipating a Montreal entry into Major League Soccer, plans were made to expand the stadium from its initial 13,034 capacity to 20,000 to cope with the anticipated boost in attendance. The Quebec government put $23 million for the renovation and expansion of the stadium (the total cost of the stadium was therefore about $40 million). The construction plans went into effect after MLS granted Montreal their nineteenth franchise, which began play in the 2012 season.

I always have a great time at Saputo. It feels like a top class stadium with some good food options
Restaurant ran out of burgers, hotdogs, cheese curd... 5min prior to kick off 1/4 of stadium was still outside very slow to get in... Game was good, great weather.
The owner and administration changed the teams name without asking it's fanbase and taking it for granted.
Great place to watch soccer for Montreal. Small stadium but does the job. Fun to explore around. In general every seat has an great view. Great day out event.
Great outdoor stadium with natural grass. Easy access, close to Olympic sites, expensive parking during soccer matches. Lots of animation before and during a match. Great sight lines, not a bad seat in stadium.
Lovely stadium. Crowd creates a really great atmosphere despite being one of the smaller MLS stadiums. Go to a game if you can.
