Barra Olympic Park, Sports complex in Barra da Tijuca, Brazil

Barra Olympic Park occupies a triangular point on the Jacarepaguá Lagoon in Barra da Tijuca, Rio de Janeiro. Its nine venues line the Olympic Way, a pedestrian corridor whose curves were inspired by the Copacabana beach promenade. Three identical white Carioca Arenas stand in a row, with the Maria Lenk Aquatics Centre and the Rio Olympic Velodrome nearby. A circular stadium with a red rim and green courts sit at the eastern end.

The grounds were originally a motorsports track that underwent renovation to host the 2007 Pan American Games. This transformation established the site as a permanent sports center for major international competitions.

The Via Olímpica, the park's central pedestrian axis, became a public park in January 2017 and has hosted Rock in Rio since 2017. The Carioca Arena 2 now houses a campus of the Federal Institute of Education, Science and Technology serving 1,400 students, while Carioca Arena 3 operates as a sports training school for 5,000 full-time students.

The park lies on the Cabo Pombeba peninsula, bordered by Avenida Embaixador Abelardo Bueno to the north and the Lagoa de Jacarepaguá on the other sides. The Via Olímpica, a broad pedestrian corridor, links the venues; its paving pattern echoes the Copacabana beach promenade. The Rita Lee Park, opened in 2024, occupies part of the grounds.

The Wall of Champions stands along the Olympic Way, the central promenade that was revitalized in 2024 as Rita Lee Park. The park itself covers 118 hectares on the Cabo Pombeba peninsula, a triangular point jutting into the Jacarepaguá Lagoon.
