About Monterrey

Estadio BBVA (nicknamed "El Gigante de Acero" — the Steel Giant) sits against the dramatic Cerro de la Silla mountain backdrop. One of the newest WC venues, its modern design and acoustics make every match feel amplified.

Getting to the stadium

Metro Line 2 to Sendero station, then local buses or taxi (5 km). Total from downtown: ~30 minutes.

Local tip

💡 Monterrey is Mexico’s BBQ capital — try the signature cabrito (roast goat) at El Rey del Cabrito downtown.
