La Bombonera, Football stadium in La Boca, Buenos Aires, Argentina.
The Alberto J. Armando Stadium features three curved tiers and one separate stand, with upper levels positioned forward for maximum visibility.
On May 25, 1940, the stadium opened its doors with a match between Boca Juniors and San Lorenzo, resulting in a 2-0 victory.
The nickname La Bombonera originates from architect Viktor Sulčič, who noted the stadium's resemblance to a chocolate box during construction.
Located at Brandsen 805 intersection with Del Valle Iberlucea Street, the stadium accommodates 58,000 spectators for football matches and events.
The stadium structure creates exceptional acoustics when fans jump and sing, causing the concrete structure to shake in a controlled manner.
