Estadio Luis Carlos Galán Sarmiento

Estadio Luis Carlos Galán Sarmiento, Municipal football stadium in Soacha, Colombia.

Estadio Luis Carlos Galán Sarmiento is a football stadium in Soacha featuring a natural grass pitch surrounded by concrete stands arranged in a rectangular shape. The venue holds around 8,000 spectators and serves as the home ground for regional football clubs competing in Colombia's leagues.

The stadium opened in 1990 and was named after Luis Carlos Galán Sarmiento, a Colombian presidential candidate assassinated during his campaign in 1989. This naming choice reflects the country's desire to honor his memory through a public space dedicated to community gathering.

The stadium is named after Luis Carlos Galán Sarmiento, the politician assassinated in 1989 near Soacha's main square while leading the polls for the 1990 presidential election; the ground opened a year later close to that site. Its tenants have included Unión Soacha (Primera B, 1999–2002), Atlético Juventud Soacha (2008–2009), Expreso Rojo (2011) and Tigres, which won promotion to Primera A in 2016.

The stadium sits near Soacha's main square, a short walk from the town centre. In 2023 the mayor approved a general renovation of the stands and pitch costing about 4,000 million pesos, so check locally whether works restrict access before travelling.

The stadium stands near Soacha's main square, the site of Luis Carlos Galán Sarmiento's 1989 assassination. It opened a year later and bears his name. In 2023, Mayor Juan Carlos Saldarriaga backed a renovation of the pitch and facilities costing about 4 billion pesos.
