Maracana Stadium Vacations and Luxury Travel Packages

Located in the eponymous quarter, EstAdio Mario Filho, which is named after the world-renowned soccer player, was built (within a space of two years) especially for the 1950 World Cup playoffs. The facility was to have been honored by becoming the site of Brazil's victory in the World Cup. But with its 2-1 victory over the favorites in the final game, Uruguay, Brazil's diminutive neighbor, made short and humiliating shrift of these dreams of grandeur and glory. No one has depicted this event more movingly than a retired stadium employee named Isaias Ambrosio whose dramatic monologue about the suffering of a Brazilian football fan is an unforgettable experience for sports enthusiasts - even for those who do not understand a word of Portuguese!

The stadium, which can accommodate up to 165,000 cheering Cariocas, is already five decades old, but its elliptical shape gives it a decidedly modernistic look. Experiencing the atmosphere at Maracana during an important Flamengo.s game or at a rock concert by a megastar like Tina Turner will certainly turn out to be the highlight of any stay in Rio. Maracanazinho, the indoor facility next door, can seat up to 20,000, and is used for volleyball and basketball games, as well as for concerts.
