Estadio Banorte, Football stadium in Coyoacán, Mexico City, Mexico

The Estadio Azteca stands as the largest football venue in Latin America, with a seating capacity of 87,523 spectators at 2,200 meters elevation.

The stadium, inaugurated on May 29, 1966, has hosted two FIFA World Cup finals, in 1970 when Brazil defeated Italy and 1986 when Argentina won against West Germany.

This football venue serves as the permanent home for both Club América and the Mexican national team, representing the heart of Mexican football traditions.

Located along Calzada de Tlalpan, visitors can reach the stadium through the Azteca station on the Xochimilco Light Rail line connecting to Mexico City's metro system.

The stadium will make history during the 2026 FIFA World Cup as the first venue to host matches in three different World Cup tournaments.
