Max-Morlock-Stadion is a football stadium in Nuremberg, Bavaria, serving as the home ground of 1. FC Nürnberg. The venue holds approximately 50,000 spectators and is the city’s principal large sports arena.

The stadium is used mainly for club football, with seating and spectator facilities suitable for top-tier matches and occasional national or large events.

Originally opened in the early 20th century, the ground has undergone multiple renovations and name changes to modernize facilities and increase spectator comfort.

The stadium lies within the city of Nuremberg and is accessible by local public transport; it sits south of the city centre within an urban sports and leisure area.

• Capacity: Home stadium of 1. FC Nürnberg with a capacity of around 50,000, used for Bundesliga and national-level fixtures.

Max-Morlock-Stadion is located in the southern part of Nuremberg. From Nuremberg city centre it is a short drive south via the local arterial roads; there is nearby event parking on matchdays and local public-transport links from the Hauptbahnhof (central station). On event days the stadium is served by additional local buses and special services from central Nuremberg; consult the stadium or VAG (Nuremberg transport) information for current service details.

• Use public transport rather than driving on match or event days - Nuremberg's transit network is designed to handle stadium crowds and will usually be faster than finding parking.
• Arrive well before kick-off or the advertised event start to avoid long entry queues and to take advantage of pre-game fan zones and concessions.
• Combine a stadium visit with a walk around the adjacent Dutzendteich park or a visit to the Documentation Centre for the Nazi Party Rally Grounds nearby if you're interested in local history and want to make a half-day of the area.
