The stadium is owned by the municipality but has been the long-term venue for Club Deportivo Palestino, a team founded by Palestinian immigrants in 1920.
The club's jersey colors—red, green, black, and white—are directly inspired by the Palestinian flag, a detail reflected in the stadium's branding.
The stadium features a specific section often referred to as the 'Galeria' where the most vocal supporters congregate during home matches.
The facility is situated in a densely populated residential sector of southern Santiago, reflecting the club's history of being deeply embedded in local neighborhood life.

Located in the commune of La Cisterna in Santiago, the venue serves primarily for Primera División matches and training sessions. The stadium has a seating capacity of approximately 8,000 spectators. The pitch is natural grass, surrounded by a running track, which is a common feature in mid-sized Chilean municipal stadiums. The facility is deeply tied to the identity of the Palestinian community in Chile, which supports the home team. It hosts professional football matches throughout the national season.
