Estadio Atanasio Girardot, Municipal football stadium in Medellín, Colombia.
Estadio Atanasio Girardot is a municipal football stadium in Medellín with approximately 44,000 seats arranged across multiple levels. It serves as home ground for two local football clubs and offers modern facilities for matches.
The stadium opened in 1953 and has been central to football in the city ever since. A major renovation in 2011 brought updated seating and facilities to meet modern standards.
The stadium is named after Atanasio Girardot, a Colombian independence leader from the early 1800s. This choice connects the venue to an important moment in the nation's past.
The Estadio station on Metro Line B provides direct access right next to the venue. Many restaurants and bars are located along the nearby Carrera 70, making it easy to find food before or after events.
The stadium is part of a larger sports complex housing five additional coliseums for different sports including martial arts, handball, and volleyball. This expansive sports area makes the site a hub for multiple athletic disciplines in the city.
