The Estadio Guaycura is a football stadium in La Paz, Baja California Sur, Mexico. With a capacity of 5,209, it serves as the home stadium of Club Atlético La Paz in the second-tier Liga de Expansión MX.^[1] Along with the baseball-specific Estadio Arturo C. Nahl and the indoor Arena La Paz, it forms a part of a sports complex called Villa Deportiva de La Paz.^[2]

History

The stadium was inaugurated in 1967 as part of the Villa Deportiva de La Paz, a project to build sports facilities for the capital city of the Territory of Baja California Sur, which together with other educational, cultural, and transportation constructions were part of a strategy of the national government to promote the development and modernization of the region, with the objective of integrating it with the rest of Mexico.

In 2018, the stadium underwent a process of expansion and modernization in order to meet the necessary requirements to be able to host a professional football team.^[3] This work included the installation of five thousand new seats, artificial turf, LED lights, changing rooms, luxury boxes, additional restroom facilities and amenities for disabled individuals.^[4]

In February 2019, a friendly match between legends from Chivas and América was held at the stadium to inaugurate the renovations.^[4] It was also announced that the venue would be hosting Lobos Marinos de La Paz, who were set to make their debut in the third-tier Liga Premier de México in the upcoming 2019–20 season.^[5]

In April 2022, the stadium became the home ground for Atlético La Paz, a team that plays in the Liga de Expansión MX, the second category of Mexican football, since the 2022–23 season.^[6]

Alternate uses

The stadium has also been used sparingly for events such as concerts and political gatherings,^[7] as well as amateur football matches.
