Unique Diego Armando Maradona Stadium

About

The Estadio Único Diego Armando Maradona (English: Unique Diego Armando Maradona Stadium, formerly Estadio Ciudad de La Plata) is a multi-purpose stadium located in La Plata, Argentina. It is also known popularly as the Estadio Único (Single Stadium) and is owned by Buenos Aires Province, administered by the Argentine Football Association since December 2025. It had been previously managed jointly by the provincial government, the Municipality of La Plata, and local clubs Estudiantes and Gimnasia y Esgrima.

Opened on June 7, 2003, the stadium was considered "the most modern of Latin America", even without having completed all of the planned construction. Its tenants include Estudiantes LP whose own stadium, the Estadio Jorge Luis Hirschi, was declared unsafe in 2005, and Gimnasia y Esgrima LP. Gimnasia returned to their original stadium (Estadio Juan Carmelo Zerillo) in mid-2008.

It is located between 32nd and 526th avenues, 25 Street and 21. These fields also contain a small rugby union stadium and a center for Physical Education, which tend to be intercollegiate events with schools in the area, such as the school No. 31, better known as the Saint Martin Commercial.
