Estadio Monumental Virgen de Chapi, Football stadium in Arequipa, Peru

The Estadio Monumental Virgen de Chapi, also called Estadio Arequipa, is an oval multi-purpose stadium in Arequipa at 2,368 metres above sea level, owned by the National University of San Agustín. Its four stands — occidente, oriente, norte and sur — hold 40,370 spectators; oriente and occidente have two tiers, norte and sur one. A curved concrete roof on a visible framework covers the upper seating above a white facade with dark rectangular openings, and the natural-grass pitch measures 105×68 metres.

Construction began in 1991 on the field where Pope John Paul II crowned the Virgin of Chapi in 1985. A university lottery, with apartments as prizes, covered about 70% of the cost according to rector Juan Manuel Guillén. The first phase opened on 11 November 1993; the completed stadium was inaugurated on 30 July 1995 with Melgar 1–1 Alianza Lima.

The name recalls the Virgin of Chapi, patron of Arequipa, whose coronation Pope John Paul II celebrated on 2 February 1985 on the field where the stadium now stands. The ground was later renamed Estadio Arequipa, though the original dedication persists in common use.

Access is via three main entrances: Avenida Venezuela and Avenida Lambramani lead to the occidente and sur stands, while the Aurora urbanisation serves the norte and oriente stands. Oriente and occidente have two seating levels, alta and baja; norte and sur have a single level. From the oriente and norte stands the Misti volcano is visible.

The 2003 Copa Sudamericana second leg was moved here because Cienciano's own ground in Cusco did not meet CONMEBOL requirements. Cienciano beat River Plate 1-0 after a 3-3 draw in Buenos Aires, giving Peru its first international club trophy.
