Palmeiras president's company eyes roof for Arena Barueri; why | OneFootball

Crefipar, a company owned by Palmeiras president Leila Pereira, won the 2024 bidding process to manage what is now Arena Crefisa Barueri for the next 35 years. Since then, the stadium has undergone numerous improvements, such as new lighting, a new pitch, renovated locker rooms, among other services.

Covering the stadium?

NOSSO PALESTRA has learned that the management company is conducting feasibility studies to cover the venue in stages. In recent months, the company has sought cost estimates for the project. However, there is no expectation that this will happen immediately, but rather over the coming years.

Leila Pereira wants Arena Crefisa Barueri to be able to host national and international concerts, as well as major sporting events, in the near future. And for the public to have more comfort and be better served, a roof over the stadium is necessary.

Palmeiras in Barueri

Because of events and the replacement of the pitch at Nubank Parque, Palmeiras has been playing quite frequently in 2026 at the arena in Greater São Paulo. This season, the team has played ten matches at the venue, with nine wins and one draw.

Verdão will host Cruzeiro on May 16 at Arena Crefisa Barueri due to a concert by the American band Korn.
