Estadio BBVA, formerly known as Estadio BBVA Bancomer, is an association football stadium located in Guadalupe, Greater Monterrey, Nuevo León, Mexico. Dubbed "El Gigante de Acero" (lit. 'The steel giant'), it replaced the Estadio Tecnológico as the home of C.F. Monterrey, ending the club's 63-year tenure at that venue. Its name is branded after the BBVA Spanish bank, and specifically its Mexican branch BBVA Mexico.
The stadium was inaugurated on 2 August 2015 with the eighth edition of the Eusébio Cup, where Monterrey defeated Benfica 3–0. The stadium is expected to host matches for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
