The stadium in Sion is being modernized – will Constantin continue now?

International matches are regularly held in the Tourbillon, such as here in the 2019 European Championship qualifier against Gibraltar.

The Valais metropolis was not the first choice. On the contrary. She was… fourth choice. First, of course, Geneva with the fashionable Stade de Genève. Second Lausanne with the Tuilière and third Neuchâtel with the Maladière. But they weren’t willing to take out their artificial turf. Only then did Zion come.

The tourbillon seats 9,700 fans

The lawn is in good condition and relatively new, having been re-laid in 2017 (after 50 years!). But the stadium is no longer up to date. “The city of Sion has promised to invest well,” says SFV communications chief Adrian Arnold. «The VIP area, the electronics. A lot is brought to the highest level. The stadium will definitely be suitable for the European Championship.” And it can accommodate 9700 fans.

CC only expects minor retouches

The state of the stadium was one of the reasons for CC to want to end professional operations in 2024. Will he now reverse his decision? CC laughs. “No, of course not. The city of Sion does not have a budget for an extensive modernization of the stadium. The small necessary retouches will be made there. Not anymore. The stadium will not look very different in 2025 than during the European Championship qualifying match for men against Andorra on September 12.”

The statements of the mayor of Sion, Philippe Varone, in the Lower Valais “Nouvelliste” seem to underline this: “The organization of Eurogames also recognizes our efforts and the investments made. Like lawns, for example.”

Eben: Now there is only makeup.
