The River Plate Stadium Expands With a New Gastronomic Space for Members
El Millonario continues its mission to elevate the comfort and experience at its iconic stadium, this time by adding a dedicated gastronomic zone for members. The club’s leadership has been steadily updating and upgrading the venue’s infrastructure, aiming to enhance every facet of match days and events held at the Most Monumental stadium. In this latest phase, a restaurant named Banda is slated to open its doors, bringing a refined dining option right inside the grounds.
The new gastronomic venue occupies the Centennial Media Stand and covers a substantial 180 square meters of interior space. It features panoramic windows that frame the playing field and offer views of the River Barrido area, creating a vivid connection between sport and dining. Access to the restaurant is conveniently arranged through the club’s main entrance, with a purpose-built lift installed on the exterior of the stadium to ensure smooth entry for members and guests.
The anticipated opening is set for Monday, September 4, and once operational, the venue will welcome guests daily from 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 a.m. The menu is designed to satisfy a broad range of tastes, including a selection of meats, pastas, and sushi, reflecting a modern, diverse culinary program that appeals to supporters and visitors alike.
Membership eligibility grants exclusive access on home-game days, creating a premium experience for loyal fans. On non-match days, the space remains open to the general public, inviting everyone to enjoy the new facility and the vibrant atmosphere surrounding the club’s home ground.
These improvements are part of River Plate’s broader strategy to modernize its stadium while preserving its historic identity. The Banda restaurant adds a new layer of hospitality, catering to families, corporate groups, and season-ticket holders who seek a comfortable, sociable setting within a landmark sporting venue.
As part of ongoing development, the club continues to invest in amenities that support a seamless, enjoyable visit for all attendees, reinforcing the stadium’s role as a premier destination for sport and food enthusiasts alike (Goal).
