Estadio Félix Capriles

Estadio Félix Capriles, Football stadium in Cochabamba, Bolivia.

Estadio Félix Capriles is a multi-purpose stadium in Cochabamba at 2,567 metres above sea level, with a real seated capacity of 28,303 measured in 2018 under the FIFA norm. Its blue-and-white entrance building carries two red pillars lettered "GOBERNACION" and "DE COCHABAMBA", and inside, covered stands with blue and white roofs surround a grass pitch and an eight-lane tartan running track.

Construction began in 1922 after the Ley Peñaranda, when the government of Bautista Saavedra authorised buying land from the Cuéllar family in the Cala Cala countryside; Paraguayan prisoners of the Chaco War supplied part of the labour. Félix Capriles Sainz pushed the project, and the Preferencia and General stands, designed by architect José Villavicencio, were finished in 1944 by Brosovich and Musevich Constructores. On 31 March 1963 Bolivia beat Brazil 5-4 here to win their first Copa América title.

Club Jorge Wilstermann and Club Aurora play their home matches here, and the stadium also hosts concerts and political rallies. Its name honours Félix Capriles Sainz, the senator who pushed the project forward from 1938. On 31 March 1963 Bolivia beat Brazil 5–4 on this pitch to win their first Copa América title.

The stadium sits at 2,567 metres above sea level in the Cala Cala area of Cochabamba, on land bought from the Cuéllar family after the Ley Peñaranda of 7 November 1922. Its eight-lane tartan running track, opened in 1993, curves in front of the stands. Only 25,000 tickets may be sold for home matches of Wilstermann and Aurora.

Part of the stadium was built with labour from Paraguayan prisoners of the Chaco War, and the land was bought from the Cuéllar family in the Cala Cala countryside after the Ley Peñaranda of 7 November 1922. The Preferencia and General stands followed José Villavicencio's design.
