Estadio Centenario Ciudad de Quilmes, Football stadium in Quilmes, Argentina.
Estadio Centenario Ciudad de Quilmes is a football stadium in Quilmes with a capacity of roughly 30,000 spectators across seating sections and standing areas distributed through concrete stands. The facility sits near Vicente López street and accommodates visitors in multiple viewing zones.
Quilmes announced the new stadium in November 1987 for its centenary, and works began in 1988 under architect Iván Urbán. It was pre-inaugurated on 19 December 1993 with a friendly between the 1978 champion side and an all-time stars team, then officially opened on 25 April 1995 with a 2–1 win over Nacional. Renamed in 2016 after the FIFA corruption case, it replaced the demolished Guido y Sarmiento ground.
The stadium's name honors the centennial milestone of Quilmes Atlético Club's founding era. It serves as a gathering place where local supporters come together to watch their team and remains woven into neighborhood identity.
The facility includes four lighting towers enabling evening matches and provides parking for roughly 380 vehicles on the grounds. Visitors should know that medical facilities and press areas support comfortable operations during events.
The stadium's name changed in 2016: it had been called Centenario José Luis Meiszner after the club president, but the name was removed when he was implicated in the 2015 FIFA corruption case. The pitch lies 5.50 metres below the level of Avenida Vicente López.
