What we will do in this experience

In the southern part of Greater Buenos Aires lies Arsenal de Sarandí, a club that may be young compared to giants, but whose story surprises everyone.

Despite being considered a “small” club, Arsenal reached international glory by winning the 2007 Copa Sudamericana, the 2008 Suruga Bank Championship, and the 2012 Argentine Primera División, among other titles. Their trophy case proves that passion and hard work can take any institution to the top.
The club is also linked to one of the most influential families in Argentine football history: the Grondonas. Founders, directors, and key figures, they shaped Arsenal’s destiny and left their mark on national and international football.

Walking through the Julio Humberto Grondona Stadium is stepping into a unique story: that of a humble club that defied all expectations and lifted continental trophies.

Itinerary

  1. Meet your local host in central Buenos Aires

    Your host will meet you at one of two convenient locations: Palermo – perfect if you’re staying in trendy, leafy neighborhoods or Downtown – ideal for guests near the city center to pick you up and go to Julio Humberto Grondona.

  2. The pre-match

    We arrived at the stadium where the blue and red colors were already beginning to be seen and emotions were beginning to vibrate.

  3. Enter the stadium and enjoy the match

    Take a seat in the stadium and feel the excitement in the air as the crowd roars: an unforgettable football atmosphere. Your host will help you pass through the various security checkpoints to gain entry.

  4. Post-match trasportation back to Palermo or Downtown

    After the final whistle, avoid the stress of navigating the crowds — your host will guide you to the arranged transportation back to Palermo or Downtown, ensuring a safe and easy return
