Estadio Nuevo Monumental, Football stadium in Rafaela, Argentina.

Estadio Nuevo Monumental is a sports facility in Rafaela with a natural grass field in standard football dimensions, surrounded by concrete grandstands on multiple sides. The structure accommodates thousands of spectators who can view the playing field from different angles.

The land bounded by Urquiza, Primera Junta, Víctor Manuel and Dentesano streets was bought in 1921, with a first payment of m$n10,000 covered by raffles and loans. The stadium opened on 12 October 1953; Platense won the friendly 5–3. Floodlights were inaugurated on 13 February 1965 in a 5–2 loss to Atlanta. After the 2002–03 Primera B Nacional title, it was refurbished and re-inaugurated as Nuevo Monumental on 24 August 2003, drawing 1–1 with Colón; Iván Juárez scored the first goal.

The ground's nickname, Monumental de Rafaela, and its location in Barrio Alberdi tie the club to its neighbourhood. The covered frontón, built about a decade before the concrete stands, remains part of the stadium's backdrop. The 1965 floodlights were inaugurated with a match against Atlanta, which won 5–2.

The pitch runs east–west, with one goal at Urquiza street and the other at Víctor Manuel street; the main concrete grandstand backs onto the former Escuela Normal on the north side. The ground sits in the densely built Barrio Alberdi, hemmed in by Urquiza, Primera Junta, Víctor Manuel and Dentesano streets, so space around the block is tight.

The land was acquired through community raffles and government loans, demonstrating how much the local population valued this project from its beginning. This unusual financing method reflected genuine grassroots support for building the facility.
