About the network
Learning where the game is played
Every modern stadium is a small city: architecture, media, security, catering, sustainability and hundreds of professions working together. For young people it is also one of the most exciting places they can visit.
LearningArena grew out of Lekcje na Stadionie – a Polish programme that has brought thousands of pupils to stadiums in Łódź, Kraków, Chorzów, Wrocław, Zabrze and Opole. Today partners in several European countries run the same model under their own national brands, sharing methods, materials and experience.
This website is the hub of the network. Each national partner runs its own website with local news and booking – you will find links to all of them below.
One method
Lessons, workshops and stadium tours built on a shared, tested methodology.
Many countries
National partners adapt the programme to their language, schools and local clubs.
Real places
Learning happens on site – in dressing rooms, press rooms and on the stands.
National partners
One network, many languages
Each partner runs the programme under its national name. Choose a country to visit its website.
