Estadio Mario Alberto Kempes Stadium

Estadio Mario Alberto Kempes is a large multiuse stadium in Córdoba, Argentina, used principally for football and named after the Argentine striker Mario Kempes. The stadium opened in the late 1970s and has hosted national team fixtures, domestic club matches and major tournaments.

The venue has undergone renovations to meet tournament requirements and has been used for events including World Cup-era matches and continental competitions. Its size and facilities make it a primary sports venue for the Córdoba region.

The stadium sits in the western part of Córdoba city and is accessible via local road links and public transport connections from the urban area.

• Opening and name: Originally opened in 1978 and later renovated for major tournaments such as Copa América, it was renamed in honour of Mario Kempes.
• Capacity and use: One of Argentina’s larger stadiums by capacity, used for national and international matches in Córdoba city.

• For big matches or concerts at the Mario Alberto Kempes expect heavy traffic; allow ample extra travel time and check official event transport plans (park & ride or bus diversions) published by Córdoba authorities.
• Buy tickets from official vendors and check whether an event is sport or concert - entry and security procedures (and the busiest arrival times) can differ substantially between matchdays and concerts.
• If attending a national team or high‑profile event, arrive early to avoid post‑event congestion and use public transport where available to simplify departure.
