Vivaldão, Football stadium in Manaus, Brazil.
The Arena da Amazonia replaced the former Vivaldao stadium with a modern 42,924-seat facility featuring a distinctive diamond-pattern exterior structure.
The stadium opened in 1970 as Vivaldao and underwent complete reconstruction between 2010 and 2014 to host matches during the FIFA World Cup.
German architects designed the stadium structure to reflect the indigenous patterns and natural elements of the Amazon rainforest region.
The facility includes underground parking, luxury suites, restaurants, and specific adaptations to manage the intense heat of the Amazonian climate.
The reconstruction project recycled 95 percent of the original Vivaldao stadium materials and incorporated advanced rainwater collection systems.
