Luna Park Stadium, Indoor arena in San Nicolás, Buenos Aires, Argentina.

Located at Avenida Corrientes and Avenida Bouchard intersection, Estadio Luna Park holds 9,200 people in its art deco building with architectural elements similar to Madison Square Garden.

The arena, inaugurated in 1932, became a national monument where Juan Perón met Eva Duarte in 1944 during a charity event that changed Argentina's political landscape.

Throughout its existence, the venue has hosted performances by Frank Sinatra, James Brown, Luciano Pavarotti, and served as a stage for Pope John Paul II's visit.

The Salesians of Don Bosco and Caritas Internationalis organizations currently manage the venue, which maintains regular programming of sports competitions and musical performances.

The first telephonic broadcast in Latin America occurred at Luna Park in 1923, transmitting the boxing match between Jack Dempsey and Luis Angel Firpo.
