Camping World Stadium hosts the friendly between Brazil and Croatia on Tuesday night, scheduled for 9 p.m. Brasília time. Located in Orlando, the stadium has a capacity of 65,000 fans and was inaugurated in 1936. In 2026, the venue celebrates 90 years of history. This will be the Brazilian National Team’s third match on its pitch.
The team’s most recent visit came on June 12, 2024, in its final match before the Copa América. On that occasion, Brazil drew 1-1 with the United States, with a goal from Rodrygo, in front of a crowd of more than 60,000 people.

Brazil’s first match at Camping World Stadium came during the Copa América Centenario in 2016. On June 8, Brazil thrashed Haiti 7-1 in the group stage. Philippe Coutinho scored three times, Renato Augusto added two, while Gabriel Barbosa and Lucas Lima completed the scoring.
Since April 2016, the stadium has officially been named Camping World Stadium. Over the course of its history, however, the venue has also been known as Orlando Stadium, Tangerine Bowl, Citrus Bowl, Florida Citrus Bowl, and Orlando Citrus Bowl.
Under the name Citrus Bowl, the site hosted five matches at the 1994 World Cup: in the group stage, Mexico 2-1 Ireland; Belgium 1-0 Morocco; Belgium 1-0 the Netherlands; Morocco 1-2 the Netherlands; and, in the round of 16, the Netherlands 2-0 Ireland.
At the same stadium, Croatia, which faces Brazil this Tuesday, came from behind to beat Colombia 2-1 last Thursday.
Camping World Stadium also played a prominent role in the inaugural edition of the Club World Cup in 2025. The competition featured four matches at the venue, including Manchester City’s surprising 4-3 elimination by Al-Hilal in the round of 16. In the next round, the Saudi side faced Fluminense, which secured a historic semifinal berth with a 2-1 victory.
In addition to those matches, the venue hosted the 1-1 draw between Los Angeles FC and Flamengo and Manchester City’s 5-2 rout of Juventus.
