Estadio Lolo Fernandez is a municipal multi-use sports facility located in the Carabayllo district of Lima, Peru. The venue serves primarily as a neighborhood hub for local football matches and community athletics. It is named in honor of Teodoro 'Lolo' Fernández, the legendary Universitario de Deportes striker and iconic figure in Peruvian football history. The stadium features an outdoor pitch and basic spectator seating infrastructure common to community-level sporting venues in northern Lima. It functions as a grassroots space for regional leagues rather than hosting professional first-division tournament games.
