Estadio Cuauhtémoc Stadium

Estadio Cuauhtémoc is an association football stadium in the city of Puebla, Mexico, that opened in 1968 and serves as the home ground of Club Puebla. It is one of the larger stadiums in Mexico and hosts top-flight Liga MX fixtures.

The stadium is noted for its distinctive colourful exterior and modernised spectator facilities following late 20th century renovations. It seats over 50,000 spectators and is also used occasionally for concerts and large events.

Originally built in the 1960s, the venue underwent major refurbishment at the end of the 20th century that included the facade redesign and upgrades to seating and amenities. The refurbishment work changed the stadium’s external appearance and improved facilities for players and spectators.

The stadium sits within the urban area of Puebla city in the state of Puebla, accessible by city roads and public transport from the city centre and surrounding neighbourhoods.

• Architectural highlight: The stadium’s exterior was redesigned in the late 1990s by architect Ricardo Legorreta and is known for its colourful geometric facade.
• Match-day tip: Home matches of Club Puebla attract the liveliest atmosphere; arrive well before kick-off for access and seating on match days.

• Attend a Liga MX or Copa match to appreciate the stadium's atmosphere and plan to arrive well before kickoff to clear security and find your seat; evening matches generally have cooler temperatures and livelier crowds.
• Purchase tickets ahead through the club or official ticketing partners to guarantee entry and to avoid long lines at the box office on match day.
• If you're combining a city visit with a game, expect heavier traffic around the stadium before and after events and give yourself extra time for taxis or rideshares rather than relying on last‑minute parking options.
