Estadio Jardines del Kelito is a football stadium in Paraguay that is located in the city of Asunción. It is the home venue of River Plate Asunción.
River Plate Asunción's former stadium, which was located in the Mariscal López and General Santos avenues, was previously known as Kelito after the club received a donation of brass from a factory named Helados Kelito. After the club bought a building, its yard was known as Los Jardines del Kelito.
Opened in 1987, the stadium was renovated in 2016 after River Plate achieved promotion to the Primera División, receiving a new lighting system. In the following year, a new grandstand was built, with the capacity of the stadium increasing in 1,500 and reaching 6,500 spectators.

The Estadio Osvaldo Domínguez Dibb, known until March 2024 as Estadio Manuel Ferreira, and officially Estadio ueno Osvaldo Domínguez Dibb due to sponsorship by banking company Ueno, is a football stadium in Asunción, Paraguay. It is the home venue of Club Olimpia and is named after former club president Osvaldo Domínguez Dibb.
The stadium was opened in May 1965 with a friendly match between Olimpia and Santos FC of Brazil, whose team included Pelé. The excitement to see Pelé playing was so great that the stadium's capacity was exceeded. During the game, one of the fences supporting the crowd in the stands broke, and many people were injured. As soon as the incident happened, Pelé ran and jumped over the fence to help the injured people. Only minor injuries occurred, and the match proceeded, ending in a 2–2 draw.
Though the stadium is the home ground of Club Olimpia, the Defensores del Chaco stadium is used for major derbies against their rivals such as Cerro Porteño because of its greater capacity.
The stadium is nicknamed "The Forest of Stop One" on account of its surroundings constituting large, tall trees, and the location having been the first stop of a now defunct Paraguayan train.
In 2024, a complete demolition of the stadium had begun. A completely new stadium will be built on the original site for the purpose of hosting one of the centenary matches of the 2030 FIFA World Cup. The new stadium will be completed by 2027, and will have a capacity of 46,000.
