The Gelredome is the home stadium of Vitesse in the city of Arnhem in the Netherlands. It was built in 1998, featuring a retractable roof as well as a convertible pitch that can be retracted when unused during concerts or other events held at the stadium. Its capacity is 32,500 spectators and 39.000 with concerts and the stadium has a climate control system. It was also one of the venues for the Euro 2000 tournament held in the Netherlands and Belgium. It replaced the Monnikenhuize. The Gelredome hosted its first UEFA Champions League game on August 13 2008 between FC Twente and Arsenal, as Vitesse are loaning Twente the stadium due to expansion work being done on Twente's home stadium, Grolsch Veste.

* Anastacia (the encore tour)
* Janet Jackson (June 9, 1998)
* U2
