The Stadio Flaminio is a stadium in Rome. It lies along the Via Flaminia, three kilometres northwest of the city centre, 300 metres away from the Parco di Villa Glori. It is now the home of Italy rugby union national team in its Six Nations tournament home matches. With a capacity of 30,000 (8,000 covered) it is the smallest of the Six Nations stadiums.
A first Stadio Flaminio had been built in 1927 on the site of an older stadium constructed in 1911 for the fiftieth anniversary of the Unification of Italy. This first stadium was built for the Partito Nazionale Fascista. The current stadium was built in July 1957 on the site of a stadium with the same name.
