Vila Olímpica Elzir Cabral, also known as Fortim do Ferrão (Ferrão's Fort) or just Elzir Cabral, is a multi-use stadium located in Fortaleza, Brazil. It is used mostly for football matches and hosts the home matches of Ferroviário Atlético Clube, which own the stadium.[2] The stadium has a maximum capacity of 8,000 people and was built in 1989.[1]

The stadium is the first private stadium in Ceará state recognized by the Brazilian Football Confederation as being able to host official matches and competitions.[3] It is named after Elzir Cabral, who was Ferroviário's president and bought the land which the stadium was built.[4]

History

The stadium was built during the 1960s and the 1970s, after a groundplot was acquired by Ferroviário's board of directors.[4]

The stadium was inaugurated on March 19, 1989, when Ferroviário beat Guarani 6–0. The stadium's attendance record currently stands at 4,679, set on that match.[1]
