Arena BRB Mané Garrincha, formerly Estádio Nacional de Brasília Mané Garrincha, also known as Estádio Nacional Mané Garrincha, Estádio Nacional de Brasília, or simply Mané Garrincha, is a football stadium and multipurpose arena, located in Brasília, in the Distrito Federal. The stadium is one of several structures that make up Brasília's Ayrton Senna Sports Complex. Since 2019, the stadium and its surroundings - includind the Nilson Nelson Gymnasium - are under private administration. Opened in 1974, the stadium had a total capacity of 45,200 people. After having reconstruction completed between 2010 and 2013, the capacity was increased to 72,788 people, making it the second-largest stadium in Brazil after the Maracanã Stadium in Rio de Janeiro and one of the largest in South America.

It was re-inaugurated on 18 May 2013, following renovations completed in preparation for the 2013 FIFA Confederations Cup and 2014 FIFA World Cup. The original architect was Ícaro de Castro Mello. The project was completed at a cost of US$900 million, against an original budget of US$300 million, making the stadium the third-most expensive football stadium in the world after England's Wembley Stadium and Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Estádio Nacional Mané Garrincha is owned since December 2019 by Arena BSB company. The name is a homage to the football legend Mané Garrincha (1933–1983), who won the 1958 and 1962 World Cup with the Brazil national team. The current name is the result of a naming rights deal between the Arena BSB and Banco de Brasília.

History

In 1974, the works on Estádio Mané Garrincha were completed. It was built when Garrincha was approximately 40 years old. The inaugural match was played on March 10 of that year, when Corinthians beat CEUB 2–1. The first goal of the stadium was scored by Corinthians' Vaguinho.

On March 2, 1996, it hosted the last concert of the legendary Brazilian band Mamonas Assassinas, after that the group suffered an airplane accident which left no survivors.

The old stadium's attendance record currently stands at 51,200, set on December 20, 1998, when Gama beat Londrina 3–0 at the 1998 Série B final, which gave Gama its first national trophy and consequent promotion to Série A in 1999.[needs update]

On December 8, 2007, the final of the first edition of the Copa do Brasil de Futebol Feminino, won by Mato Grosso do Sul/Saad, was hosted at Estádio Mané Garrincha.
