Estádio Universitário São Paulo

Estádio Universitário São Paulo is a multi-use stadium located in São Paulo, Brazil. It was designed by architect Ícaro de Castro Mello in 1962 for the 1975 Pan American Games and inaugurated in 1971.[1] As a homage to the Universiades it has a continuous two-level seating deck shaped as a crescent or a letter "U".[1] Today it encompasses two side-a-side pitches used for football, rugby union matches. It hosts the home matches of University of São Paulo. The stadium has a de facto capacity of 30,000 people on concrete bleachers,[2] but the exterior of the venue is no longer maintained, it no longer meets the operational requirements for attracting events, and the upper level has been indefinitely closed off.[1]
