About DirecTV Arena
Welcome to the venue page for DirecTV Arena, historically known as Arena Tortuguitas. Located in the ALG Center complex at Avenida Olivos 3215, Tortuguitas, Malvinas Argentinas Partido, Buenos Aires Province, Argentina, this indoor multipurpose arena has hosted major acts since its opening in 2015. With a capacity that commonly ranges from 13,500 seated up to about 15,000 total, the arena has been a central hub for concerts, sports, and large events in the greater Buenos Aires area. While the venue has remained closed since 2020 after sponsorship changes, it sits within a transportation-rich corridor near Autopista Panamericana, with revival discussions continuing and nearby venues stepping in to fill the gap. If you're planning an event or attending a show, we’ve got you covered with easy, no-fuss ticket access and nearby logistics to help you secure your seats.
DirecTV Arena’s legacy lives on in the memories of headline acts like Sting at the grand opening on October 31, 2015. If you’re researching venues in the Tortuguitas/North Buenos Aires region, consider the newer Movistar Arena in Buenos Aires for reference on contemporary options and continued access to premier events. For travelers, we’ve highlighted transportation options, ample on-site parking, and trusted nearby hotels and restaurants to help you plan a smooth visit. Remember, we’re your connection to securing tickets and arranging details—like having a friend in the business.
