Estadio Arena Cora, Football stadium in Tepic, Mexico.
Estadio Arena Cora is a football stadium in Tepic, the capital of the Mexican state of Nayarit, with concrete stands holding around 12,600 spectators. The ground has a natural grass playing surface and tiered sections for both players and visitors.
The stadium was built in 2010 and opened in 2011, at a time when Tepic needed a modern sports venue to support the region's growing football scene. It has since gone through several upgrades to meet the demands of professional play.
The stadium is home to Deportivo Tepic, a local football club competing in the lower professional divisions of Mexico. Match days draw families and fans from across the Nayarit region, giving the ground a strong community role.
The stadium sits on the outskirts of Tepic and is reachable by car or local bus. On match days, arriving early is a good idea since the roads nearby can get busy.
The name Arena Cora refers to the Cora people, an indigenous group from the mountains of Nayarit state. This connection to local history is something many visitors overlook on their first visit.
