Estadio Francisco Zarco, Football stadium in Durango, Mexico.
Estadio Francisco Zarco is a football stadium in Durango with a natural grass playing surface and capacity for about 18,000 spectators. The concrete grandstands and terraces are arranged around the field.
The stadium opened on November 24, 1959, marking the start of professional football infrastructure in Durango. It has since grown to become an important venue for the region's sports culture.
Local fans call the venue 'El Nido del Alacrán' because of its long connection with the Alacranes de Durango team since 2014. This nickname shows how deeply the stadium is tied to the team's identity and the community that supports it.
The stadium is easy to access with multiple entrances for visitors and spectators. The concrete seating provides good views of the field from most locations.
