History
[edit]The stadium was remodeled for the 1999 Copa América, that Paraguay hosted.[3]
In August 2004, caused by disturbances from Sportivo Luqueño fans in a Primera División Paraguaya game, the club was sanctioned for 30 days and the Estadio Feliciano Cáceres was inhabilitad until September.[4]
In January 2012, because of the closing of the Estadio Defensores del Chaco and the Estadio Manuel Ferreira, Club Olimpia Asunción were programmed to play most of its 2012 Copa Libertadores and Torneo Apertura games inside the Estadio Feliciano Cáceres.[3]
In June 2020, the stadium's re-opening was approved of following an inspection by the authorities of the Asociación Paraguaya de Fútbol for Sportivo Luqueño to use for official games, last playing inside the stadium in the 2018 Torneo Clausura.[5][6]
