The MHPArena (German pronunciation:[ɛmhaːpeːʔaˌʁeːna]) is a stadium located in Stuttgart, Baden-Württemberg, Germany, and home to Bundesliga club VfB Stuttgart. It hosted football matches in the 1974 FIFA World Cup, the UEFA Euro 1988 and the 2006 FIFA World Cup. Besides that the 1959 European Cup Final, the replay of the 1962 European Cup Winners' Cup final, the 1988 European Cup Final and the second leg of the 1989 UEFA Cup final took place in the stadium. The stadium hosted the 1986 European Athletics Championships and the 1993 World Athletics Championships before it was redeveloped into a football-specific stadium in 2009.
Before 1993 it was called the Neckarstadion ([ˈnɛkaʁˌʃtaːdi̯ɔn]ⓘ), named after the nearby river Neckar. Between 1993 and July 2008 it was called the Gottlieb-Daimler-Stadion[ˌɡɔtliːpˈdaɪmlɐˌʃtaːdi̯ɔn]. The stadium was renamed the Mercedes-Benz Arena at the beginning of the 2008–09 season, starting with a pre-season friendly against Arsenal on 30 July 2008.[8] On 1 July 2023, the stadium was renamed the MHPArena.[2][1]
