Foro Sol is a sports and concerts venue built in 1993 inside the Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez in eastern Mexico City. It is located 10 minutes away from the Mexico City International Airport and is operated by Grupo CIE.
The venue was originally built simply for staging large music concerts. Initially called the Autódromo, it could accommodate up to 50,000 people. Since 2000, it has been used as a baseball stadium as well, because the only other major baseball stadium in Mexico City (Parque del Seguro Social, formerly Parque Delta) was demolished to build a shopping mall.
It is home to the Diablos Rojos del México, a Mexican Baseball League team, and hosted Pool B of the 2009 World Baseball Classic March 8-12, 2009.
Its name comes from a popular beer brand of the Cervecería Cuauhtémoc Moctezuma group. Foro Sol can be considered second in capacity for large concert attendance in Mexico City after the aging, but very functional, Estadio Azteca.
