Estadio Universidad Católica was a multi-use stadium in Santiago, Chile. The venue was also known as Estadio Baquedano and Estadio Reina Victoria, due to the boxing events held there and the good relations between the entrepreneur in charge of the events and a cigar company. Among the events held at this venue were football matches, boxing nights (including a Latin American championship), equestrian events, and others.

The Estadio Universidad Católica was the first of four stadiums that have been owned by the Chilean club Universidad Católica, followed by the Campos de Sports de Ñuñoa, Estadio Independencia, and the Estadio San Carlos de Apoquindo. This sports venue was located at the corner of Maestranza Street (currently named Avenida Portugal) and Marcoleta.
