The stadium is located in a park area on the shore of the Gulf of Finland. Visitors to home games enjoy views of the bay, the Lakhta Center, the tallest skyscraper in Europe, and a highway bridge spanning the water on their way to the arena. All of this is the new sea façade of St. Petersburg.

The retractable roof of Gazprom Arena in the form of a glass dome with a diameter of 286 meters and the stadium's roll-out field are some of the stadium's important technological advantages.

The closing roof allows for a comfortable temperature inside, making the arena multifunctional and allowing it to be used at any time of year. In addition, during the daytime it is a source of light, making it a tool for responsible consumption by reducing the amount of electricity used.

The popularity of the St. Petersburg stadium among fans is also due to its comfort and safety, which have become the hallmark of Gazprom Arena.
