The projects consist of the design and construction of a new
sports centre and the remodelling and expansion of the Miguel
Grau Coliseum on the Regional Sports Village of Callao, as well as
the design and refurbishment of the football stadium of the National
University of San Marcos.

The Polideportivo presents an unparalleled opportunity to construct
a recognisable landmark for Callao. The lively streets of Callao and
the vibrant spirit of their inhabitants are the inspirations for an open
and inviting building that is used by elite competitors and the local
community. The 17,600 m2 sports centre will include competition and
warm up areas and will accommodate 6,100 spectators. It will host the
volleyball, taekwondo and Para-taekwondo competitions during the
Games, and it will become the new home for the Peruvian National
Volleyball Team in the Legacy mode, as well as be used for a wide variety
of special events.

The architectural design of the Coliseo is based on sympathetically
remodelling the existing building within the context of the Callao
Cluster. During the Games, the Coliseo will be a world-class facility for
wrestling, boxing and the Paralympic sport – Goalball with a capacity
of 2,400 seats. After the Games, it will revert to a much-improved multisports
arena where the Peruvian Basketball Federation and Peruvian
Volleyball Federation are both headquartered.

The refurbishment of the existing Estadio San Marcos provides an
opportunity to bring new life and use to a venue that no longer met
the needs of its users. During the Games, the Estadio will be used
for international-level (FIFA) football. It will accommodate 33,000
spectators, the needs of athletes, FIFA, Media and Broadcasters. In
Legacy, the Estadio can host sub 17 matches, concert and religious
events. Improvements to the players changing areas, the field of play
surfaces, the tribune seating arrangement, and new stairs that connect
the tribunes to the field of play, will make the building functional for a
range of different uses.
