The handsome Mordovia Arena, located in the host city of Saransk, is another newly opened venue of the FIFA 2018 World Cup. The full capacity of the arena is marked at 45,000 seats which will be brought down to a meagre 28,000 seats after the World Cup by converting the upper tier into a walking atrium. Situated on the banks of the RiverInsar, the Mordovia Arena exhibits a deviant colour palette of orange, red and white on its facade, and is being recognised as the most colourful, vibrant and fiery venue for the World Cup. The arena is based in perhaps the least known city of Russia and the brilliant architecture is devised to function as the new centre of gravity and pull crowds to the city centre. The Mordovia Arena will host four first round group matches.
