Estádio Luso-Brasileiro, Football stadium in Ilha do Governador, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

The Estádio Luso-Brasileiro contains four separate grandstands with a total capacity of 30,000 spectators, featuring specific sections for home and visiting supporters.

The stadium opened its gates on October 2, 1965, with an inaugural match between Portuguesa and Vasco da Gama, attracting 8,565 spectators to witness the first goal.

The stadium name reflects the connection between Brazilian and Portuguese communities, serving as the home ground for Associação Atlética Portuguesa of Rio de Janeiro.

The facility underwent multiple renovations, including expansions to accommodate 17,250 spectators in 2016 and subsequent modifications to reach 20,113 seats in 2017.

Local weather patterns earned the venue the nickname Stadium of Howling Winds due to strong gusts that regularly sweep across the playing field.
