History
and
characteristics
The
name
of
the
stadium
comes
from
Our
Lady
of
Butarque,the
patron
saint
of
Leganés.
The
stadium
was
built
between
1997
and
1998
with
the
aim
to
replace
the
old
field
in
the
city,
the
Estadio
Luis
Rodríguez
de
Miguel.
Butarque
was
inaugurated
on
14
February
1998,
with
a
game
between
Leganés
and
Xerez.
With
an
original
capacity
of
8,138,
after
the
promotion
of
Leganés
to
La
Liga,
Butarque
was
expanded
to
10,954
seats,
divided
into
four
sectors.
Butarque,
apart
from
football
matches,
has
hosted
musical
concerts
and
festivals
like
Festimad.
On
29
April
2016,
the
mayor
of
Leganés
suggested
an
expansion
of
Butarque
to
12,000
seats
and
also
the
improvement
of
access
to
the
stadium.
After
adding
a
new
row
in
August
2017,
finally
the
stadium
had
a
capacity
for
11,454
spectators.
