The Estadio Municipal Nuevo Pepico Amat is a multi-use stadium located in Elda, Alicante, Valencian Community, Spain. It has a capacity of 3,025[1] and is currently used for football matches and is the home of CD Eldense.
In 2011, the Elda City Council began constructions to build a new stadium 300 meters away from Estadio Municipal Pepico Amat, attempting to turn the grounds of the old stadium into a commercial center.[2] The cost of the new stadium reached € 4,5 million, and took the name of its replacement, being called "Nuevo Pepico Amat".[3] Home tenants CD Eldense played their last match in the "old" Pepico Amat on 29 August 2012, a 0–0 draw against Orihuela CF.[4]
The new stadium was opened on 30 September 2012, as Eldense faced CF Borriol in a Tercera División match, with Cristian Algaba scoring the only goal of the afternoon as José Arastey's side won 1–0;[5] even though mayor gave the initial kick-off, the stadium was never officially inaugurated.[6] Initially built with artificial grass and being rated a 2-star UEFA stadium, the stadium switched to a natural grass in August 2021.[7]
The stadium is named after, a former football manager and player born in the city, who played in La Liga for RCD Espanyol, and also played and coached Eldense.
