Júlio Delamare Aquatics Centre, Aquatics centre in Maracanã, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

The Júlio Delamare Aquatics Centre is a swimming facility in the Maracanã neighbourhood of Rio de Janeiro, opened in September 1978. It stands within the Maracanã Sports Complex and is named after sports broadcaster Júlio Delamare, who championed its construction and died five years before it opened.

Opened in September 1978, the centre is named after sports broadcaster Júlio Delamare, who championed its construction and died five years earlier. It was renovated for the 2007 Pan American Games water polo events at a cost of 10 million reais, reopening on 2 May 2006 and hosting that year's World Junior Swimming Championships. Threatened with demolition for the 2016 Olympics, it was listed as protected by a decree from mayor Eduardo Paes, then reopened in 2018 after five years closed.

The centre is named after sports broadcaster Júlio Delamare, who championed its construction and died in the 1973 crash of Varig Flight 820 in France, five years before the pool opened. Its revival in 2018 came from a partnership between the state sports superintendency and the Bauru Aquatic Sports Association, which funded the works.

The centre sits in the Maracanã Sports Complex, next to the Maracanã stadium and the Célio de Barros athletics track, in Rio's Maracanã neighbourhood. It reopened in 2018 after five years closed, following a renovation funded by the Rio de Janeiro State Sports Superintendency and the Associação Bauruense de Desportos Aquáticos.

The pool was threatened with demolition to make way for new 2016 Olympic structures, but the project was not approved. Mayor Eduardo Paes then listed it as a protected space by decree, alongside the Célio de Barros athletics stadium, the Friedenreich municipal school and the old Museu do Índio building.
