The Recep Tayyip Erdoğan Stadı (also Recep Tayyip Erdoğan Stadyumu , German Recep Tayyip Erdoğan Stadium ) is a football stadium in the Beyoğlu district of the Turkish city of Istanbul . It can accommodate 14,234 people. The stadium was rebuilt and modernized from 2005 to 2010 in accordance with the UEFA criteria. The football club Kasımpaşa Istanbul plays its home games in this stadium. The arena is named after the Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan , who was born in the Kasımpaşa district.
Special location and first modernization
The stadium in the Kasımpaşa district is in a very densely populated area and is on a slope. In the past, the stadium only comprised an east and south grandstand. The north side bordered directly on a traffic road that comes at a 45 ° angle to the north side of the edge of the field to within a few meters of the field and then makes a 90 ° turn. As a result of this, traffic always passed on the north side during the game broadcasts.
In 2005 the south and east stands were roofed over and further extensions and modernizations were implemented.
Second modernization
Extensive renovations and expansions took place in 2010, so that the stadium now meets the UEFA criteria. So an uncovered west and north stand was built and floodlights were installed. Since the north side of the edge of the field is directly adjacent to a street with a 90 turn and the turn is directly on the edge of the field, the north stand was partially omitted at the point where this street has its turn. A listed tree, known as the Kasımpaşa tree , and an apartment building protrude into the north stand .
Special events
During the 2013/14 season, Beşiktaş Istanbul played its home games at Recep Tayyip Erdoğan Stadı. The games against Fenerbahçe Istanbul , Galatasaray Istanbul and Trabzonspor as well as the games in the Turkish Cup were excluded .

Since June 2015, the Turkish national football teams for men and women have each played an international match in the stadium.
