Soberanía National Stadium (Spanish: Estadio Nacional Soberanía) is located in Managua, Nicaragua. It has a capacity of 15,000.[1] The stadium was built in 2017 as the Estadio Nacional Dennis Martínez, named after former Major League Baseball player Dennis Martínez, as a replacement for Managua's previous Estadio Nacional (built in 1948)
It is used mainly for baseball but also serves as a venue for concerts, boxing, football, religious events and had a capacity of 30,100 people.[2] It is the home stadium of Indios del Bóer baseball team and Deportivo Walter Ferretti football team. Inside the stadium is a hall of fame near the entrance showing medals, cups, photos and memories of Nicaraguan players. There is also a gym located inside.[3]
The new Dennis Martinez National Stadium was sponsored by the Taiwan government and began construction in 2016. It was completed in October 2017. The first sports event in the stadium was the Baseball series of three games between Nicaragua & Chinese Taipei (Taiwan) on October 20–22, 2017. It played host to the Central American Games in 2017. The stadium, located near the Tiscapa Lagoon, is approximately 3 kilometers southeast of the original stadium. It was designed by Dynamica and it has a capacity of 15,000. The field meets Major League Baseball specifications and could potentially host a Major League Baseball game.
