Estadio BBVA
Monterrey Stadium
Estadio Monterrey is confirmed for four 2026 World Cup matches. It will stage three group-stage fixtures and one Round of 32 match on 29 June, giving Monterrey a compact but important tournament schedule.
Estadio BBVA is located in Guadalupe, part of the Monterrey metropolitan area, and is one of the most visually powerful venues in the 2026 World Cup. Its defining feature is the view toward Cerro de la Silla, a mountain that sits beyond the stadium and gives many seats a dramatic natural backdrop. The venue is usually the home of CF Monterrey, one of Liga MX's major clubs, and its modern design reflects both football intensity and regional pride. Opened in 2015, it is newer than Mexico's other assigned venues and includes sustainability ideas, contemporary amenities, and steep stands suited to strong home atmospheres. During the World Cup, Estadio BBVA gives fans a different Mexican experience: less historic than Azteca, but highly photogenic, modern, and closely tied to Monterrey's landscape.
Opened in 2015, Estadio BBVA replaced CF Monterrey's older home and quickly became one of Mexico's most admired modern stadiums. The venue has hosted Liga MX finals, CONCACAF matches, and international events, while its design earned attention for framing Cerro de la Silla and incorporating environmental considerations around the site. It has also staged major concerts and regional sporting events. Its young history is already closely connected with Monterrey's club success and with the city's image as a northern Mexican football powerhouse.
