Stadio Aurelià, known for branding purposes as Aeracara Stadio Aurelià, is the national stadium of Montecara. It is home to professional football team SBD Montecara and the Montecaran men's and women's national football teams. In addition to a football field, the stadium includes an athletic track and an underground arena used for basketball, volleyball, fencing, gymnastics, and other indoor sports. The stadium is also used as a venue for concerts and other live events.
The current structure dates largely from 1989, when the original stadium dating to 1939 was substantially rebuilt. The rebuild dramatically altered the form of the original hippodrome-like structure, adding extensive interior spaces and a roof covering the seating area. A renovation undertaken in 2012 modernized the stadium, particularly the media and communications facilities.
The attendance record was set on 16 July 2022 at a concert given by Violaine Rousseau which drew 19,125 attendees.
