The stadium also has a new sports bar, replacing the MallorCafé, a gym, and a restaurant. All of these are located in the so-called VIP Hospitality zone. Even, with their creation fans are still allowed to bring their food so the atmosphere is very homely.

​The story of Estadi Mallorca Son Moix

Built in 1999 to host multiple sports events of the1999 Summer Universiade the stadium quickly became the main home of the local football club Real Mallorca. 

As the official Real Mallorca stadium guide states the club agreed on a 50-year lease of the ground and moved from their previous home. So, from the summer of 1999 onward Real Mallorca call this ground their home. 

For advertising reasons, the stadium has changed names many times over the last few decades. Here is the full list of the ground’s previous names: Estadi de Son Moix (2022-present), Visit Mallorca Estadi (2020–2022), Estadi de Son Moix (2017–2020), Iberostar Estadi (2010–2017), Ono Estadi (2006–2010), Estadi de Son Moix (1999–2006).

One of the main attractions of the Real Mallorca stadium guide is the stadium tours. They are available six days a week, including on matchdays, and give detailed and intimate access.

Estadi de Son Moix stadium tours include entry into both state-of-the-art dressing rooms and a walk on the pitch through the same tunnel the players use every time.
