The Estádio José Alvalade XXI is the center of the Alvaláxia complex, which includes a cinema with twelve movie theaters, a fitness center , a club museum , a sports hall, a clinic, a Lidl and an office building. The stadium was designed very colorful inside and outside. The facade was painted in different colors, the curved roof and the large, yellow roof supports shape the appearance of the stadium.
