Estádio Moisés Lucarelli, football stadium in Brazil
Estádio Moisés Lucarelli is a white football ground in Campinas with a curved facade bearing the stadium name and "A. A. Ponte Preta" in black capitals, six round openings and a tall pylon marked "AAPP". Its pitch measures 107 by 70 metres on a 36,000 m² site, and the current capacity is 19,728.
Estádio Moisés Lucarelli was inaugurated on 12 September 1948, built over six years with materials donated by Ponte Preta supporters. Its opening capacity of 35,000 made it Brazil's third largest ground, after Pacaembu and São Januário, hence the nickname Majestoso. The inaugural match ended Ponte Preta 0–3 XV de Piracicaba, with two missed penalties. Capacity was reduced to 19,728 in the 2016 CNEF, with 17,728 released for safety.
Arriving early is recommended to secure good seating, especially during important matches between the home team and rivals. The stadium is accessible by public transport and private vehicles, with parking available on the grounds for visitors.
