Estadio Latinoamericano

Havana


The largest stadium in Cuba holds 55,000 people and was built before the revolution, in 1946. It’s the home of Havana’s widely revered (or reviled, depending on where you’re from) baseball team, Los Industriales. Entry to games costs small change. The season is from late October to April, with playoffs running until May.

US president Barack Obama came here during his historic 2016 trip to see America's Tampa Bay Rays play Cuba's national side in an exhibition game.
