In the first quarter of this year, Pollstar magazine, specialized in the entertainment industry, ranked the Movistar Arena in sixth place globally among venues with capacity for 10,000 and 15,000 people, with more than 263,000 attendees in this period and more, of 15.9 million dollars generated at the box office. This international recognition, which places it as the only Latin American venue in the Top 10, is the third honor of this type received by the venue, after being nominated in 2023 for the Pollstar Awards in the 'International Venue of the Year' category, along with colossi such as Wembley Stadium in England and Scotiabank Arena in Canada.
Thus, the Movistar Arena, which has been in operation for six years, has become a point of reference in the global entertainment circuit, not only for the quality of the events, but for its contribution to the local and national economy. Luis Guillermo Quintero, general manager of the venue, explained that the impact goes far beyond the events, as each one promotes several sectors, from tourism to gastronomy.
