Estadio Miguel Grau, Football stadium in Piura, Peru
Estadio Miguel Grau is a football stadium in Piura with concrete stands, metal roofing, and artificial turf. It holds around 18,000 spectators and features multiple entrance gates along with designated areas for media coverage and sporting events.
Construction of the stadium began in 1956 and was completed in 1958, marking an important development in sports infrastructure for northern Peru. This project represented a major investment in the region at that time.
The venue bears the name of Miguel Grau Seminario, a Peruvian naval commander honored for his heroic actions during the War of the Pacific.
The stadium is located in central Piura and is easily accessible with marked access areas and parking available nearby. Visitors should arrive early, especially during major events, to avoid long queues at the gates.
Major upgrades were completed in 2004 to meet international standards, including electronic scoreboards and improved lighting systems. These improvements allowed the facility to host sporting events at a higher standard.
