Estadio Miguel Grau, Football stadium in Bellavista, Peru.
Estadio Miguel Grau is a multi-use football stadium in the Bellavista District of Callao, Peru, within the Villa Deportiva del Callao (Yáhuar Huaca) complex between Colonial and Guardia Chalaca avenues. Its seating capacity is 17,000, and four floodlight towers installed in 2003 light the pitch for night matches.
Estadio Miguel Grau opened on 16 June 1996 with a 3-1 Sport Boys win over Deportivo Pesquero in the Torneo Descentralizado. Its record crowd of 17,785 saw Sport Boys beat Alianza Lima 2-1 on 15 August 1999, with goals from Germán Pinillos and Marquinho and one for Alianza by Claudio Pizarro. In January 2011 administration of the stadium and the Yáhuar Huaca complex passed from the Peruvian Institute of Sports to the Regional Government of Callao; in April 2023 Sport Boys signed an agreement obtaining the transfer of the stadium's administration.
Sport Boys, the club identified with Callao, has played its home matches here since the 3-1 inaugural win over Deportivo Pesquero on 16 June 1996. Universidad de San Martín used the ground from 2012 to 2017 and Academia Cantolao from 2016 to 2022. The record crowd, 17,785 on 15 August 1999, saw Sport Boys beat Alianza Lima 2-1 with goals from Germán Pinillos and Marquinho.
The stadium sits in the Villa Deportiva del Callao, the former Yáhuar Huaca zonal park, between Colonial and Guardia Chalaca avenues in Bellavista. Access is through that sports complex, and the four floodlight towers inaugurated on 8 March 2003 make night matches possible. Sport Boys has administered the venue since the April 2023 agreement with the Callao Regional Government.
