History and description
Estadio Garcilaso was built in 1950 and could initially hold just over 20,000 spectators.
The stadium got further expanded for the 2004 Copa América, even though it only hosted the match for third place.
In the early 2000s, the government of Cuzco presented plans to redevelop Estadio Garcilaso, which would involve the installation of a roof, a new exterior, and more boxes, but while they had hoped to complete the redevelopment in 2014, thus far only minor refurbishments have been performed.
How to get to Estadio Garcilaso

The stadium furthermore lies only a few hundred metres away from the Cruz del Sur bus terminal, which has long-distance service to most large cities in Peru.
Address: Estadio Inca Garcilaso de la Vega, Cusco
