Estadio Bello Horizonte - Rey Pelé

Estadio Bello Horizonte - Rey Pelé, Football stadium in Villavicencio, Colombia.

Estadio Bello Horizonte - Rey Pelé is a football stadium in Villavicencio with a rectangular grass pitch marked by white lines, a centre circle and penalty areas. A low wall with blue and red advertising panels separates the pitch from tiered seating in blue, yellow and red beneath a flat roof on slender columns. A tall lighting tower with a rectangular bank of lamps stands behind one goal, and a small dugout with a curved metallic roof sits near the field edge. Capacity is 18,000 spectators.

Inaugurated in 1958, the stadium was long named Manuel Calle Lombana after the Villavicencio mayor of that year, and in 2020 it returned to its original name Bello Horizonte. In 2023 it became Bello Horizonte - Rey Pelé, joining FIFA's homage after Pelé's death on 29 December 2022. It hosted the XII Juegos Nacionales in 1985 and, on 9 April 1994, Colombia's only match here, a 0-1 friendly loss to Bolivia.

The nickname "Macal" comes from the initials of Manuel Calle Lombana, the 1958 mayor whose name the ground carried until 2020. In 2023 it was renamed Bello Horizonte - Rey Pelé, joining FIFA's tribute after Pelé's death on 29 December 2022. Two clubs have won the Primera B title here: Centauros in 2002 and La Equidad in 2006, against Centauros.

The pitch is artificial turf, installed in 2012 when the natural grass was removed, a change that drew local controversy. That same 2012 intervention by governor Alan Jara, budgeted at about COL$4,200 million, added new seats and removed the old protective fencing. Because works ran late, Llaneros played its early home games at Compensar in Bogotá and at Estadio La Esperanza in Villavicencio.

The name Bello Horizonte was restored in 2020, and in 2023 "Rey Pelé" was added after the Brazilian's death on 29 December 2022, joining FIFA's tribute initiative. Before that the ground was called Manuel Calle Lombana, after the mayor of Villavicencio in 1958, the year it opened.
