Alfredo di Stéfano Stadium
Stadium Madrid stadium used by Real Madrid's reserve and women
Located inside Real Madrid’s training complex at Valdebebas, the Alfredo di Stéfano Stadium hosts Real Madrid Castilla and women’s matches. Fans attend reserve fixtures and combine visits with the club’s training facilities and nearby parks.
Alfredo di Stéfano Stadium is a football stadium located within Real Madrid’s training complex in Valdebebas, Madrid, used primarily for reserve and academy matches and for certain first-team fixtures when required.
The stadium offers a seated bowl around a natural grass pitch and supports training, youth matches and occasional official matches for Real Madrid Castilla and other club teams. Its size and facilities make it suitable for matches with smaller crowds than the club’s main stadium.
Built as part of the Ciudad Real Madrid training complex, the stadium and surrounding facilities were developed to centralise the club’s sporting infrastructure and youth development. The venue has been used temporarily by the first team during periods when the principal stadium was unavailable.
Located in the Valdebebas district to the northeast of central Madrid, the stadium is part of the larger training and administrative campus that sits on the city’s outskirts.
- Training ground stadium: Functions as the primary stadium within Real Madrid's Ciudad Real Madrid training complex and was used as the club's match venue during Santiago Bernabéu renovation work.
How to Get to Alfredo di Stéfano Stadium #

By car it is reached via the M-11 or M-40 urban motorways from central Madrid (the drive is on the order of ten kilometres from central Madrid and only a few kilometres from the airport).

Tips for Visiting Alfredo di Stéfano Stadium #
- Check Real Madrid's official site for fixtures and stadium-tour availability before you go-Alfredo di Stéfano Stadium is on the club's Valdebebas training campus and match/tour availability can be limited.
- Buy tickets early: the stadium is relatively small compared with Santiago Bernabéu, so any first-team fixtures or cup games there have limited capacity and sell out fast.
- If you want a deeper look at the complex, book a Ciudad Real Madrid training-ground tour in advance (when offered by the club) rather than expecting open access on a matchday.
