The Copa Libertadores, in the Rio Fan Zone

The organizing body of South American football has already launched the Fan Zone where fans can start watching the Libertadores final. Located in Copacabana, in front of the Hilton Hotel, the space will open from 2 to 10 p.m. until Friday inclusive.

The Copa Libertadores is on display there, although there are also other attractions for visitors: a stand dedicated to each finalist, an exhibition with the jerseys of all the Brazilian teams that won the competition, a beach soccer area and a food court.

Admission is free, although the capacity limit is 7,500 people. It is an attractive initiative for those who are in Rio days before the match to begin experiencing the final. On Saturday, Fluminense will look to lift the trophy for the first time, while Boca will try to get their seventh star.
