Stadio Sergio Lanfranchi, previously known as Stadio XXV Aprile, is a new sports stadium dedicated to rugby union, located in the city of Parma in the Emilia-Romagna region of northern Italy. It replaces the original Stadio Sergio Lanfranchi which was demolished in July 2008.
It is a 5,000 seat arena which hosts Crociati Parma Rugby FC and Gran Parma Rugby rugby union teams. It also hosts the Parma Panthers American football team. In 2012 it also became the home stadium of the Zebre franchise which replaced Aironi in the Pro12 league and Heineken Cup.
In January 2015, the Stadio XXV Aprile was renamed as the Stadio Sergio Lanfranchi, the previous stadium of that name having been demolished.
