Antalyaspor is a football club from Antalya, founded in 1966. It has spent much of its history moving between the Süper Lig and lower divisions but in recent years has established itself as a stable top-flight team. The club has not yet won a major national trophy but has reached the Turkish Cup final twice, in 2000 and 2021, and is considered one of the stronger provincial teams in Turkish football.
The team plays at Antalya Stadium, officially known as Corendon Airlines Park due to sponsorship. The ground opened in 2015, has a capacity of around 32,000, and features a modern design with a partially transparent roof. Before moving there, Antalyaspor played at the Antalya Atatürk Stadium, which had been their home for decades.
Antalya, the city the club represents, is a major tourist destination on Turkey’s Mediterranean coast. Known for its beaches and historical sites, it is one of the fastest-growing cities in the country. Antalyaspor serves as a key symbol of local pride, with a loyal fan base that has grown alongside the city’s expansion.
