Estadio Garcilaso de la Vega
Cusco, Peru
Estadio Garcilaso de la Vega , known in full as Estadio Inca Garcilaso de la Vega, has carried that name since it opened and has never been officially renamed.
Cienciano, Deportivo Garcilaso, Cusco FC and Real Garcilaso have all called it home.
The shape it has now dates from 2003–2004, when it was rebuilt for the Copa América 2004. Juan Pablo Gallardón drew up the project; the work cost around $1.72m, part of a wider $5m programme across Peruvian grounds. The athletics track was lifted at the same time — a change that, by some accounts, left the playing surface prone to settling.
The tournament brought exactly one international here: the third-place match on 24 July 2004, Uruguay beating Colombia 2–1 in front of 30,000.
An artificial surface was laid in 2013 and abandoned after players and supporters objected; natural grass returned. Continental football still comes regularly: on 28 February 2018 Real Garcilaso marked their Copa Libertadores debut here by beating Santos 2–0.
