Trade around the stadium

On match and concert days, street vendors work around the Meazza: sandwiches, drinks, scarves and shirts. After the stadium was sold to the clubs in 2025, their presence was redrawn. In summer 2026 the City of Milan approved a call for 20 temporary permits, valid until 30 June 2027, in addition to the 22 operators already authorised for the 2026-27 season.

This page reports the steps and figures as they stand in the official acts and in the newspapers that read them. It names no operators and suggests nowhere to buy: the site carries no advertising. The overall project is in The new stadium; the routes to get there are in How to get there.

Sources for this page

What this page rests on

Every fact is checked against at least two independent sources and, where one exists, the official source.

Two independent sources

Dates, measurements and names go through at least two sources that do not copy each other. Where it exists, we go to the original: the deed, the archive, the body that owns it. What appears in only one place waits.

One version only

If two sources disagree, the original document prevails. If even that is not enough, only the part they agree on is written: the year, for example, instead of the day.

Updated every day

The press review and calendar are updated every day. Everything else changes when a new document turns up, and then it changes everywhere at once.

From the community

Many memories, family photographs and tips come from people who live here, writing to the Facebook page. They are published only if the sender agrees. How to take part: Community.

Everything traceable

Sources are listed above and on the page Sources, with archive, shelfmark and terms of use.

No interpretation passed off as fact

An approximate figure stays approximate, a project stays a project until construction starts, and whatever does not add up stays out. The criteria are in Method.
