estádio nacional mané garrincha

This place cost the people of Brasilia over 1 billion US dollars to build (for the World Cup). It is monstrously ugly on the outside.The interior is an impressive modern football stadium. Unfortunately, Brasilia does not have a football team, so the stadium will need to attract rock shows etc to pay for its maintenance. The last event I went to was the Paul McCartney meg- show. A huge disappointment. After appearing 80 minutes late he sang (mainly) only the stuff he had concocted since breaking up with John Lennon, most of it of dubious quality.

Liked - evey seat has a very good view.. Diskliked - Food in the stadium . Plenty of parking close to the stadiums and make sure to buy tickets before as they don't selll tickets in the stadium.

Was there for the World Cup. The stadium is centrally located just a short walk from many hotels. It is very clean and entry ran smoothly and all vendors were very nice.

The stadium was expensive, but it is quite nice. Location is great, easy walk from city center. Inside you have good views from any seat.

I was lucky enough to watch a quarterfinal game at this venue during FIFA World Cup with a couple of friends and it was hands down an amazing experience. A magnificent sporting arena with excellent views from every seat. Well done brasilia for investing in what must be one of the best of its kind. A must when in brasilia!!!

I was very impressed when I visited this stadium, it is really fantastic and very confortable. It is very easy to get in and to go to the bathrooms, also it has a small square of restaurants outside when you can eat and drink something before or after the game, normally there are a group os singers or bands that perform while you are eating.... additionally this stadium is very close to the historical and governamental center of Brasilia, so you can enjoy the walk!!!!

This stadium is incredible! Everything is brand new/remodeled and clean. We watched Fluminense and Botafogo play. It was my first pro soccer game and this stadium really made it count. The seats are very close to the pitch. Security is tight and I never felt unsafe.

Huge stadium & premises. Very neat and well maintained! The staff are friendly and the place is well secured, so that over-enthusiastic fans don't lose control. Its situated right in the centre of the city.

Estádio Internacional Mané Garrincha is a cool stadium, with a huge parking area around it, very open space, so you can see it from miles away. If your're visiting on a normal day, when there's no game going on, you can see it from outside in about 30min, take a few pics and move on. There shouldn't be outside toilets or places to eat, so prepare before going there. Guided tours are still scarce, but it's worth looking that up on google.If you're visiting on a match day, then you're be able to see it from the inside. It's a beautiful stadium, with cafeterias and toilets available, as well as wheelchair access. It's a cool experience.

After all the controversy all repairs were completed on time. Great stadium! Staff friendly and helpful. Very clean and organized.

A lovely stadium with light columns that makes the whole structure a designer dream. The seats are well placed so the view of the whole field is clear.

I have been to many football stadiums around the world, but this ranks as one of the best. Towering supporting pillars circle the outside of the arena, with a seemingly more modernised stadium within. There are huge concourses, with lots of facilities. Then, when you take your seat, you realise how close you are to the pitch. The stands are so steep that the sight lines are fantastic wherever you are positioned, and the closeness to the action is more reminiscent of an English stadium. I preferred this ground to the Maracana, which although iconic, is more of a bowl and so you are much further back from the action. The stadium is also in a great location, a park just a walk from some of the central sights of Brasilia (including the TV tower).

Saw the France vs Nigeria game here and the stadium is as awesome and inspiring as all the other government buildings nearby. Certainly worth visiting. You can see it very clearly from the radio tower.

I went there to watch the Quarterfinals' match between Argentina and Belgium, the stadium is very nice, modern and really big, I don't know if Brasilia has a local team, but I think it must be used, whether is it for football or not

Just got back from watching Brazil vs. Netherlands at this stadium and it was a phenomenal experience. Everything was exceptionally clean and organized. Not sure if it is open for tourists on a regular basis, but a very neat place to visit!
