From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Campo Argentino del Polo, popularly known as the 'Cathedral of Polo', is a multi-use stadium in Buenos Aires, Argentina. It is currently used mostly for polo, pato and field hockey matches and hosted matches for the 1978 World Hockey Cup.

The stadium, opened in 1928, holds 30,000 people and is located in Palermo on Libertador Avenue [1], close to Las Cañitas. The Campo hosts the annual Argentine Open Polo Championship, a highlight of the international polo season.

In recent times, the stadium has been used for concerts, such as Oasis, Carlos Santana, Jamiroquai, R.E.M., Beck, Neil Young, and other public events.
