Estadio Aliardo Soria Pérez, Football stadium in Pucallpa, Peru
The Estadio Aliardo Soria Pérez is a football stadium in the Bellavista neighbourhood of Pucallpa, owned by the Instituto Peruano del Deporte. Its covered stands, fitted with synthetic turf in 2012, hold 17,848 spectators. It is the home ground of Rauker FC and of Copa Perú clubs such as Sport Loreto, Deportivo Pucallpa and La Loretana.
The stadium opened in 1997 and is owned by the Instituto Peruano del Deporte. In April 2010 the Ucayali regional government began works that added a roof and new synthetic turf, raising capacity to 17,848; that stage was inaugurated in July 2012. A second stage in 2015 replaced the running track and pitch using equipment from Spain.
The stadium's name honours Aliardo Soria Pérez, who arrived in Pucallpa from Contamana at fourteen and founded the La Loretana soft-drink factory; the fame of those drinks reached football through the club of the same name. The name was adopted by congressman Tubino Arias, who helped bring the team to the Copa Perú. Today Sport Loreto, Deportivo Pucallpa, Deportivo Bancos, La Loretana and Deportivo Hospital play their Copa Perú matches here.
The stadium stands in the Bellavista neighbourhood of Pucallpa and is owned by the Instituto Peruano del Deporte. The Regional Government of Ucayali manages broadcasting and advertising rights through its Social Development Office. Accessible seating was expanded in the 2010-2012 works, when the venue was roofed and fitted with synthetic turf.
The stadium was used as a polling station in the 2021 Peruvian general election. In March 2025 it served as an emergency shelter for people affected by flooding of the Ucayali river. Its name honours Aliardo Soria Pérez, founder of the La Loretana soft-drink factory.
