Description
Available in:
The National Stadium of Peru (Spanish: Estadio Nacional del Perú, pronounced ) is a multi-purpose stadium in Lima, Peru. Its current capacity is 40,272 seats as stated by the Peruvian Football Federation and Instituto Peruano del Deporte. An additional 3,509 spectators can be seated in the box suites that stand above the four main stands. However, government regulations limit ticket sales to 90% of the stadium's maximum capacity, reducing it in the stands to 36,244 and 3,158 in box suites. The stadium was first inaugurated on 27 October 1952 for the 1953 South American Championship—replacing the old National Stadium—and is Peru's principal and national stadium. It has hosted three of the six South American Championship/Copa América football competitions held in Peru. It is referred to as the Coloso de José Díaz because of its proximity to a street of the same name. It is located at an altitude of 135 meters (442.91 ft) above sea level.
The Estadio Nacional is the home ground of the Peru national football team. The Peruvian Sports Institute (IPD)—a branch of the Ministry of Education—is the stadium's administrating entity. The stadium has undergone several renovations for tournaments such as the 2004 Copa América. The artificial turf was installed for the 2005 FIFA U-17 World Championship. The most recent renovation started in 2010 and concluded in 2011. The re-inauguration ceremony of the renovated stadium was held on 24 July 2011 with a match between the Peru national under-20 football team and the Spain national under-20 football team.
