History and description

The stadium has been home to the Chivas, Atlas, and Oro football clubs ever since it was built. The Estadio Jalisco stadium was built in the 1950s to provide Guadalajara with a large modern sports stadium for its major football clubs, Chivas, Atlas, and Oro. The stadium has been home to these three clubs ever since it was built. The 1956 season began with construction of the stadium, which was completed in 1959. The new stadium opened on 31 January 1960 with a five-team tournament comprising of the three Guadalajara teams, San Lorenzo, and Sao Paulo.

The stadium could initially accommodate about 30,000 spectators, but this was later increased to 70,000 for the 1970 World Cup.

During the World Cup, Estadio Jalisco hosted six games - the first round group match between Brazil and Peru (4-2) and the quarter-final between Brazil and Peru (4-2), as well as the semi-final between Brazil and Uruguay (3-1).

After sixteen years, Jalisco Stadium was once again one of the playing venues during the 1986 World Cup. This time, it hosted three first round group matches, one round of 16 match, the quarter-final between Brazil and Poland 4-0, and the semi-final between West Germany and France (2-0).

Ten matches out of the fourteen World Cups hosted at the stadium featured the Brazil national team.

Upon its inauguration, Chivas, Atlas, and Oro entered the stadium, while Leones Negros UdeG moved in ten years later.

The stadium sharing between rivals Chivas and Atlas had never been a happy marriage, and in 2010 Chivas moved out of the newly built Estadio Chivas to the old stadium. In 2019, newly formed Calissa Jalisco moved into the stadium.
