Ocesa and GNP Seguros elevate live entertainment experience with new Coliseo GNP Seguros

With 55 years of history and a cultural and sporting legacy that has shaped generations, the newly renovated Coliseo GNP Seguros - formerly Estadio 3 de Marzo - will reopen its doors this August, ushering in a new era for live entertainment in Jalisco and western Mexico. This evolution reflects the commitment of Ocesa - part of Live Nation Entertainment - and GNP Seguros to continue delivering experiences and connecting fans with productions from both the national and international circuits.

For decades, the venue has hosted some of the most significant moments in sports and music in Guadalajara. Today, that legacy is projected into the future through a vision centered on the audience experience. The result of a landmark investment and the partnership between Ocesa, GNP Seguros, and Universidad Autónoma de Guadalajara, the new Coliseo GNP Seguros aims to redefine how live events are experienced, positioning Jalisco as a strategic hub within the global entertainment circuit.

The access system has been fully redesigned to optimize audience arrival, with a reorganization of parking and flows that prioritize mobility toward a new entry lobby. This space functions as a vibrant plaza featuring brand activation areas, food park zones, merchandising spaces, ticket offices, bars, and a beer garden designed to encourage longer stays and social interaction before and after events.

Inside, seating areas have been upgraded to provide greater comfort and optimized views of the stage, while new hospitality zones and VIP services elevate the standard. The venue will also feature new restroom facilities and an expanded food and beverage offering, strategically distributed to improve circulation and reduce waiting times. Accessibility is another key focus, with continuous pathways from the main entrance to different areas of the venue, allowing people with reduced mobility to move more easily throughout the entire experience.

The new Coliseo GNP Seguros has been designed to meet the demands of the most ambitious productions on the international circuit. The reconfiguration of the stage - now more efficiently integrated into the venue’s structure - maximizes space across the field, suites, and seating areas, increasing operational capacity while enhancing the audience’s visual experience.

This is complemented by new backstage areas with dressing rooms, production offices, and service spaces, aiming to optimize operations for artists and technical crews. Additionally, the venue will feature a digital screen system, including a perimeter LED ring and strategically placed visual communication points to enrich the in-stadium experience.

The transformation also redefines the venue’s visual identity. A new lightweight roof provides greater protection, while reshaping the venue’s silhouette. The renovated facade and updated materials project a contemporary image aligned with the world’s leading venues. To inaugurate this new chapter, the Coliseo GNP Seguros will host major performances by Alejandro Sanz, Yuridia, Los Auténticos Decadentes, Los Caligaris, and Panteón Rococó.
