History edit

 
Stadium in 2019

After Mushuc Runa's promotion from Segunda Categoría in 2011, the club started to prepare the grounds for a new stadium in March 2012.[1] The construction was completed in late 2018,[2] and had its inauguration on 17 November of that year, as Mushuc Runa beat Orense 3–0 in the Serie B.[3][4]
