Arena Fonte Nova/import

The Itaipava Arena Fonte Nova[2] also known as Complexo Esportivo Cultural Professor Octávio Mangabeira is a football-specific stadium, first used for the 2013 FIFA Confederations Cup and the subsequent 2014 FIFA World Cup.[3] The stadium is located in Salvador, Bahia and has a maximum capacity of 55,000 people. The stadium was built in place of the older Estádio Fonte Nova. A group of architects from Brunswick, Germany, which also redesigned the old Hanover stadium into a modern arena for the 2006 Cup, was selected after bidding.

Since 2013, the brewery Itaipava from Grupo Petropolis has the naming rights of the arena "Itaipava Arena Fonte Nova" under a sponsorship agreement until the year 2023, amounting to $100m. This was the first naming rights agreement signed for the 2014 World Cup stadiums.

The stadium was inaugurated on April 7, 2013, with a Campeonato Baiano game in which Vitória defeated Bahia 5-1. The first player to score a goal in the stadium was Vitória's Renato Cajá. During this match, some supporters were unable to see the game completely due to some blind spots.[4] The stadium had excessive dust and some puddles.[4] The company responsible for the stadium, owned by Grupo OAS and Odebrecht, said it was aware of the problems.[4]

On May 27, 2013 a section of the roof collapsed after heavy rain.[5] The stadium will be one of the venues used for the football competition of the 2016 Summer Olympics.
