About Estadio BBVA
Estadio BBVA is a football stadium in Guadalupe, a suburb to the east of Monterrey in Nuevo León, Mexico. It was formerly known as Estadio BBVA Bancomer, and its name comes from the Spanish bank BBVA, specifically its Mexican branch BBVA Mexico. Nicknamed El Gigante de Acero, meaning The steel giant, it took over from the Estadio Tecnológico as C.F. Monterrey's home, after the club had spent 63 years at that venue. At its inauguration on August 2, 2015, Monterrey beat Benfica 3–0 in the Eusébio Cup's eighth edition.
C.F. Monterrey's owner FEMSA developed the stadium, and the architecture firm Populous designed it together with the Mexican firm VFO. Construction ran from August 2011 to July 2015. It opened with a capacity of 51,000, and more seats brought that to 53,500 in 2016. Costing US$200 million, it ranked as Mexico's most expensive stadium when built. The stands slope at 34 degrees, and the gap between the pitch and the seats is the minimum FIFA allows, keeping fans close to the action.
Estadio BBVA holds a silver certification for sustainable design under Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design rules, and it was North America's first football stadium with it. More than a third of the land is green space, which filters rainwater and helps recharge aquifers. The prominent peak Cerro de la Silla can be seen to the south-southeast, and its summit is 1,820 m (5,970 ft) in elevation.
