Stadio Danilo Martelli is the main stadium in Mantua, Italy. It is named after a Mantuan footballer from the 40's, who died in the Superga air disaster that claimed the lives of the whole Turin football team in 1949. It is currently used mostly for football matches and, on occasion, for concerts. It is the home of A.C. Mantova. The stadium holds 14,844 but has recently been given temporary extra seats on a metallic scaffolding for the attendance needs of Serie B. The central seats concrete cover was capsized by a tornado in 1977, and since then the safety of the structures has been periodically put into minor question. There are currently plans afoot to demolish it and rebuild it in a less central area of the city, while the current site is going to be destined to commercial use, as of yet unspecified.
