Monterrey Arena

Monterrey Arena, arena in Monterrey, Mexico

Arena Monterrey is an indoor arena in Monterrey, Nuevo León, with a gently arched roofline and a curved facade of pale blue-grey glass panels divided by a grid of mullions, lettered "ARENA MONTERREY" across the middle. Darker grey walls edge the glazed front at an angle, and a dark canopy sits at ground level before the entrance plaza. It seats up to 17,599 people.

The project began in 1989 under the Asociación para el Fomento de Deporte y Recreación, led by Jorge Lankenau and Hernán Garza, with land granted inside Fundidora Park. Construction started in January 1994 but halted by 1996 amid the economic crisis. In 2001 the state invited investors and Publimax S.A. de C.V. won with a US$50 million commitment; work resumed in late 2002. The arena opened on 27 November 2003 with a Juan Gabriel concert.

The arena's name appears in large letters across its curved glass facade. It has hosted the final of La Academia's fourth generation, broadcast by TV Azteca in July 2005, and Jenni Rivera gave her last concert here in 2012. The venue also held the press center for the Monterrey Special Summit of the Americas in January 2004.

The arena is easily accessible by car or public transportation, with parking available nearby. You can also reach it by taking the metro to the Y Griega station or using several bus routes that go to Parque Fundidora.

The arena stands on land inside Fundidora Park, granted by the Nuevo León state government for the project first presented in 1989. Its site measures 45,000 m². Publimax holds 80% and TV Azteca 20%.
