Johan Cruijff ArenA guide: Oasis in Amsterdam
The Johan Cruijff ArenA is Ajax's home in Amsterdam-Zuidoost, renamed in 2018 after the club's most famous player. It was one of the first European stadiums with a retractable roof, which means concerts can go ahead in any weather, and it sits right next to its own railway and metro station.
