About this venue

Rodrigo Paz Delgado (also known as “Casa Blanca”) is one of Quito’s most recognizable stadiums and a key stage for Ecuadorian football. Opened in 1997, it was built as the home of LDU Quito and stands out for a bowl-like layout that keeps the stands close to the pitch, amplifying the sense of proximity. With a capacity of around 41,500 seats, it balances big-match scale with an atmosphere that still feels intense and focused.

Inside, the experience is classic stadium drama: strong sightlines from most sections, a unified wall of crowd sound, and a pace that rises quickly once the action starts. On major matchdays, food and drink concessions operate throughout the concourses, and the sector layout typically makes it easy to locate supporter areas and calmer family sections without losing the overall event flow.

The stadium sits at Av. John F. Kennedy 817, Quito, Ecuador. A practical approach is to navigate to Avenida John F. Kennedy and then follow signage to the main gates along the stadium esplanade, with parking usually available on nearby streets and on event-managed areas when opened.

About the city: Quito

Quito, Ecuador’s Andean capital, blends colonial charm with modern energy in a city that naturally draws fans of sport, concerts, and major events. Set high among volcanoes, Quito offers a distinctive rhythm: daytime coffee culture and street food flow easily into an evening scene, while the variety of venues and neighborhoods makes it an easy choice for a short break or a longer stay.

Getting in and around is straightforward thanks to a reliable transport network. From the moment you arrive via Aeropuerto Internacional Mariscal Sucre (UIO), the city’s organized approach to mobility is clear, and within Quito the combination of Metro de Quito and the BRT corridors Trolebús and Ecovía makes it easy to connect key districts and travel hubs. If you’re arriving by road, intercity links feel especially practical through Terminal Terrestre Quitumbe and Terminal Terrestre Carcelén, while travelers who enjoy the journey itself may also appreciate remembering Estación de Tren de Chimbacalle. This kind of infrastructure means less logistical stress and more time to enjoy the event atmosphere.

When tickets aren’t the only reason to visit, Quito rewards curiosity. Wander through the Centro Histórico, one of the region’s most striking historic quarters, and catch the city’s pulse at Plaza de la Independencia (Plaza Grande). The lane-like La Ronda is ideal for a short walk before or after a show, with artisan details and a warm local mood. For a panorama that locks in the memory, take TelefériQo toward the slopes of Pichincha, and if architecture is your thing and you like a skyline anchor, stopping by Basílica del Voto Nacional is a natural choice.
