Arizão, Football stadium in Campos dos Goytacazes, Brazil

Arizão is the Estádio Ary de Oliveira e Souza, a football stadium in Campos dos Goytacazes opened on 9 January 1938 and owned by Goytacaz Futebol Clube, which plays its home matches there. It holds up to 15,000 spectators, and part of the stands is named after the actor Tonico Pereira, a well-known Goytacaz supporter.

The stadium's construction was completed in 1938, and it opened on 9 January with Goytacaz beating Internacional de Campos 2–1; Otto Nogueira scored the first goal. Goytacaz was the first club in the interior of Rio de Janeiro state to install floodlights, in 1960. The stadium's record attendance is 14,708, set on 13 April 1986 in a 1–1 draw between Goytacaz and Flamengo.

The stadium is named after Ary de Oliveira e Souza, a former president of Goytacaz Futebol Clube, and is nicknamed Aryzão. Part of the stands bears the name of actor Tonico Pereira, a well-known Goytacaz supporter. The club's 1960 floodlight system made it the first in Rio de Janeiro's interior to have one.

The stadium sits in Campos dos Goytacazes, in the state of Rio de Janeiro, not in the city of Rio. It is the home ground of Goytacaz Futebol Clube, so the stands fill mainly on match days; check the club's fixture list before travelling. The ground holds 15,000 spectators.

The stadium is named after Ary de Oliveira e Souza, a former president of Goytacaz. Part of the stands bears the name of actor Tonico Pereira, a well-known Goytacaz supporter. In 1983, Bebeto, later a four-time world champion, scored his first professional goal here.
