Vivaldão

Vivaldão is a football stadium in Manaus with seating for around 42,900 people and a distinctive diamond-pattern exterior. The facility includes underground parking, luxury suites, and restaurants designed to handle the intense heat of the Amazon region.

The original stadium opened in 1970 and served as Manaus' main football venue for decades. A complete rebuilding between 2010 and 2014 transformed it into a modern facility ready for World Cup matches.

German architects designed the stadium structure to reflect the indigenous patterns and natural elements of the Amazon rainforest region.

Access to the stadium is straightforward for visitors, with adequate parking and services on site. Arriving early helps you enjoy the air-conditioned spaces and avoid long lines during events.

The rebuilding project recycled roughly 95 percent of the original stadium materials, making it a sustainable construction effort. The site also features advanced rainwater collection systems adapted to the tropical climate.
