The nickname 'La Bodega' reflects the historical cultural influence of the Mendoza wine region on the club.
The stadium's location between residential blocks is a rarity for top-flight Argentine football venues.
It was historically known as the Estadio de Godoy Cruz before being renamed in honor of a former club president.
The venue has undergone multiple phases of modernization to meet safety and broadcast requirements for the Liga Profesional.
Its construction dates back to the 1950s, making it one of the older active venues in the Cuyo region.
Estadio Feliciano Gambarte is the historic home ground of Club Deportivo Godoy Cruz Antonio Tomba, located in the Godoy Cruz department of Mendoza. Often referred to as 'La Bodega' due to its proximity to regional wine industries, it is one of the few stadiums in Argentina located in a dense residential neighborhood. The stadium underwent significant structural renovations in recent years to allow the club to return to hosting official Primera División matches at this venue. The site is characterized by its proximity to the railway tracks and the intimate proximity of the stands to the pitch. It serves as a central hub for the club's identity and local community activities.

Check the club's official social media channels to confirm if a specific match is being held at Gambarte or the larger Estadio Malvinas Argentinas.
If visiting on a match day, arrive well in advance as local streets are often restricted to pedestrian traffic.
The surrounding neighborhood has several local 'peñas' where fans gather before matches.
Do not attempt to park a vehicle in the immediate vicinity on match days, as parking is extremely limited and heavily restricted.
The stadium is frequently closed to the public outside of official match days or club-sanctioned events.
Avoid wearing clothing affiliated with rival clubs to ensure a trouble-free experience in the neighborhood.
