Estadio Municipal de Lo Barnechea, Municipal football stadium in Lo Barnechea, Chile.
The Estadio Municipal de Lo Barnechea is a football stadium in the Cerro 18 sector of Lo Barnechea, Santiago, part of the Parque de la Chilenidad. It has 2,500 seats, a synthetic pitch, floodlights built to FIFA standard D for HD broadcasts, and a small athletics track added in the 2024 renovation.
Construction was originally due to finish in February 2013, but municipal mismanagement delayed delivery several times. The stadium was inaugurated on 18 October 2015, and on 23 January 2016 it hosted its first professional match, a 0–0 draw between AC Barnechea and Iberia de Los Ángeles in the Primera B. A full remodelling, including a new synthetic pitch and LED lighting, was inaugurated on 14 June 2024.
Since 2016 AC Barnechea has played its home matches here, and from 2020 Atlético Oriente of Tercera B also hosts its home games in the stadium. The ground sits inside the Parque de la Chilenidad, an urban park built by the municipality beside Cerro 18.
The stadium sits in the Parque de la Chilenidad on the Cerro 18 sector, and its 2,500 seats are all individual chairs. The 2024 renovation replaced the synthetic turf, all seats and the lighting with LED units, and added a mini athletics track; works were inaugurated on 14 June 2024.
The stadium sits inside the Parque de la Chilenidad, an urban park built by the municipality on the slope of Cerro 18 alongside the venue. Only half of the planned stands were built at first, those bordering the Cerro 18 hillside, which is why the capacity stayed at 2,500.
