In 2019, Atatürk Olympic Stadium won the bid to host to 2020 UEFA Champions League final with the promise of upgrading the existing pitch. Following thorough research and deliberations, UEFA has decided to use HATKO Hybrid Grass for the final match.

After the pitch was intsalled, the pitch received 5 star from UEFA consultants that tested the field. However, due to Covid19, the final was relocated to another destination.

In four years since its original installation Atatürk Olympic Stadium hosted many football games as well as other events.

On June 2023, the stadium finally hosted 2023 UEFA Champions League. Thanks to regular and diligent maintenance, 4 years after installation, the pitch received another 5 star rating on the match day.
