About this venue
Jorge Luis Hirschi (also known as UNO) is a compact, modern football stadium that blends more than a century of heritage with a thoroughly updated shell. After a major rebuild and its 2019 reopening, it stands out for steep stands, clean sightlines, and the feeling of being right on top of the pitch—an atmosphere that translates well to both matchdays and live shows. With roughly 32,530 seats, it’s sized for big nights while still keeping the crowd tight and loud.
Inside, the experience is defined by strong visibility from most sections, solid acoustics, and amenities aligned with contemporary expectations: food and drink points, hospitality areas, and additional on-site facilities within the wider complex (including a pitch-side restaurant and supporting sports spaces). The all-seater layout and the stadium’s geometry help sustain intensity, making events feel larger than the capacity suggests.
Its setting is distinctive: the venue sits by Paseo del Bosque, so arrival can include a pleasant walk through green park paths before you reach the gates. The exact address is Av. 1 1150-1198, La Plata, Argentina; the main approaches and access points run along Avenida 1, and on event days it’s best to follow official signage to your sector and use the designated drop-off for taxis/ride-shares or marked parking in the surrounding area.

About the city
La Plata, the elegant, purpose-built capital of Buenos Aires Province, stands out as a strong regional hub for sports, concerts, and major events. The city moves to a recognizable rhythm, with broad avenues and a clear neighborhood grid, so visitors find it easy to navigate even on a short stay. With a lively university vibe and a steady flow of things to do, La Plata is a place where going to an event naturally pairs with good restaurants, cafés, and evening strolls.
Getting in and moving around is straightforward thanks to strong connections: Estación La Plata is the terminus for Línea Roca commuter trains linking the city with Estación Constitución in Buenos Aires, and the Tren Universitario adds a practical link between key points in town and the campus area. Within the city, you can rely on the network of local buses (colectivos) that run along the main corridors and provide access to arena and stadium areas, making event logistics simple without overplanning. If you arrive by air, La Plata Airport (LPG) is an option, while for a wider range of flights travelers commonly use Ministro Pistarini International Airport (EZE) and Jorge Newbery Airfield (AEP), with a more direct and predictable onward journey to La Plata.
When you have time before or after the show, La Plata delivers a compact “tourism bonus”: Plaza Moreno and the monumental Catedral de La Plata make a strong first impression, and the diagonal avenues plus the regular street grid turn walking into an easy, relaxed plan. For a green break, Paseo del Bosque offers attractions and cultural-scientific highlights—ideal for easing into a concert night or unwinding after a match. Add spots like Pasaje Dardo Rocha and the lively shopping spine of Calle 12, and you get a city that effortlessly turns a ticketed event into a complete experience.
