Welcome to the global alpha city and host of the 2026 Winter Olympic Games, Milan!
So why Milan?
Milan is already home to multiple successful football and basketball franchises. The city itself is situated in North Italy, near the Alps and Great Lakes. Already famous for being a major fashion capital, Milan is a culture hub for not only Europe, but the world at large. Regularly a tourist destination, the populous and economically strong city sees tens of millions of visitors every year. So why not give the ISFL a foothold in one of the most attractive cities that the world has to offer?

Logistics
Milan is already home to a fantastic sporting venue, the Stadia Giuseppe Meazza, also known as San Siro. It currently exists as the home for the A.C. Milan and Internazionale football clubs, has hosted countless concerts, and even some rugby matches. And of course, as mentioned earlier, San Siro was the venue for the opening to the 2026 Winter Olympic Games. The Ultimus should be hosted in a stadium capable of hosting such a momentous occasion, and San Siro meets those requirements. Boasting a capacity of just under 80,000 patrons, there should be just enough room to fit in all the ISFL diehards.
Branding
I wanted to encompass the brightness of the city, but also make sure the city itself was represented in any Ultimus branding. Incorporating the city's seal into the design seemed like it could be a perfect fit with a redesigned ISFL shield. Here's what the boys in marketing were able to mock up:
Here's the little logo version:
Conclusion
I just want to say thank you for your consideration. Milan would be a fantastic host city for the upcoming Ultimus, or even a permanent location. Milan is already where the world's biggest fashion show is, so why not make it the home of the biggest show on the gridiron?
