Estadio Departamental Libertad, Football stadium in Pasto, Colombia.
The Estadio Departamental Libertad is a football stadium on the Panamericana avenue at the southern exit of Pasto, owned by the Department of Nariño. It has natural grass and a pitch built to FIFA dimensions, with seating for 20,000 spectators after the 2019 renovation. The western stand, covered in reinforced concrete since 1953, is the only roofed section.
The stadium opened in 1955 and underwent major renovations in 2007 to meet international standards. These upgrades prepared the venue to host international competitions.
Local team Deportivo Pasto calls this place home, where supporters gather on match days to cheer together. The stadium serves as a gathering point for the community to celebrate their football passion.
The stadium features modern facilities including renewed changing rooms and strong lighting for day and night matches. The venue is generally accessible, and arriving early is advisable to find a good spot.
The western stand's reinforced concrete roof dates from 1953, before the stadium opened in 1954. The eastern stand is named Tribuna Carlos Moreno López after a journalist and broadcaster, and part of it was called "la tribuna de los gorriones" because children entered free.
