Estadio GNP Seguros, Concert venue in Iztacalco, Mexico
Description
Estadio GNP Seguros is a multi-purpose arena within the Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez racing complex in Tlalpan, serving as a concert stage, music venue, and sports facility. The space covers a wide footprint with several grandstand sections holding 55,000 spectators, using the existing circuit infrastructure for large-scale events.
History
The facility was born in 1993 when temporary grandstands were built into a curve of the racing track after talks between Paul McCartney's team and OCESA. Those makeshift structures evolved into a permanent installation that became a major destination for music and sports in Mexico City over the decades.
Culture
This concert hall regularly hosts Latin music festivals, international touring acts, and sports competitions that draw crowds from across the country. The scene shifts between loud fan sections during rock shows and family gatherings at motorsport events, with local food vendors reflecting the capital's culinary traditions.
Practical
The site sits near Mexico City International Airport and connects directly through public transit, with several entrance gates helping manage crowd flow. Visitors should plan extra travel time during major events, as roads around the grounds can become heavily used.

Coldplay set an attendance record in 2022 when 259,591 people attended four back-to-back shows. The racetrack geometry allows an unusual sightline where spectators in different sections have distinct perspectives on the stage.
