Lia Manoliu Arena is a football (soccer) stadium that will be built in Bucharest, Romania. It will be ready in 2010 and it will host the national team's games and the Romanian Cup finals.

The owners (the Municipality of Bucharest) will pay €142,000,000 for the stadium, which will be able to hold 55,000 people but with a potential expansion of 63,000 people.

In October 2005, it was decided to rebuild the old stadium completely; however, initially no funding was found, so some repairs proceeded in lieu of rebuilding. Later, funds became available and the rebuilding began in November 2007.

It will be the first 5 Star venue in Romanian football and will also host European Competitions because of the lack of suitable stadiums in the country, as only tow other stadiums can support UEFA Champions League

It will also bid for the 2011 UEFA Cup Final for its first major European final.

This stadium is the first one built so it could support a possible bid for Euro 2020 which Romania & Bulgaria are prepared to host.
