Estadio Olímpico Metropolitano is a multi-use stadium in San Pedro Sula, Honduras. It is currently used mostly for football matches and also has facilities for athletics. The stadium has a capacity of 45,000. It was built in 1997 for the Central American Olympic Games. This stadium was built by Jerónimo Sandoval, mostly known by “Chombo Sandoval”, he was the organizer of the 1997 Central American Olympic Games in San Pedro Sula, which caused many controversies.

Before leaving office, San Pedro Sula’s former mayor, Oscar Kilgore, attempted to change the name of the stadium to José de la Paz Herrera, a noted Honduran football coach and the only coach to have taken Honduras to a World Cup. The move was heavily opposed by Club Deportivo Marathón and eventually abandoned.
