The club has traditionally played at the 3,000 capacity Estadio Toribio Vargas which is based in Jara neighbourhood. Between 2002 and 2014 however, the club played at the 7,000 capacity Roberto Bettega in the Zeballos Cué neighbourhood. In 2014 the club sold the stadium to a port company for 10 million dollars, and it was subsequently demolished. The club is now back playing in its traditional home.[citation needed]
