Allianz Parque

Avenida Francisco Matarazzo 1705, Água Branca, São Paulo, Southeast Brazil, 05001-200

Nestled in the heart of Sao Paulo, Allianz Parque (Palestra Italia Arena) is a vibrant stadium for entertainment and sports enthusiasts. As one of Brazil’s largest and most modern multipurpose spaces, it’s home to thrilling football matches, concerts by global artists, and many events; this iconic venue guarantees excitement for all.

The basics

Travelers can enjoy Allianz Parque independently by attending football matches, international concerts, or cultural events. To ensure a seamless experience, pre-book game tickets and enjoy a pre-game immersion in local gastronomy at traditional Palmeiras bars.

For a more in-depth experience, take a guided Brazilian football excursion that includes a guided tour of Allianz Parque and discover behind-the-scenes areas, including the press room, locker rooms, stands, and field. These tours often include a visit to the Football Museum at Pacaembu Stadium.

Things to know before you go

  • Confirm what's included in your ticket, whether it grants access to specific seating areas or exclusive behind-the-scenes experiences.

  • For football enthusiasts, arriving early allows you to soak in the pre-match excitement and catch a glimpse of the players during warm-up.

  • Sao Paulo's weather can vary, so dress comfortably and be prepared for occasional rain.

How to get there

The arena is easily accessible by public transportation. From the Sao Paulo city center, take the Metro Line 3 from Se station to Palmeiras - Barra Funda station. From there, it's an easy walk to the main entrance. Several buses also go directly to the stadium, including 874T-10 and 938V-10, stopping at R. Palestra Italia, 1708. Rideshares and taxis are also readily available. Consider taking a football-themed tour with round-trip transportation for absolute comfort and convenience.

When to get there
