It was re-inaugurated on 18 May 2013, following renovations completed in preparation for the 2013 FIFA Confederations Cup and 2014 FIFA World Cup. The original architect was Ícaro de Castro Mello. The project was completed at a cost of US$900 million, against an original budget of US$300 million, making the stadium the third-most expensive football stadium in the world after England's Wembley Stadium and Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.[5]
Estádio Nacional Mané Garrincha is owned since December 2019 by Arena BSB company. The name is a homage to the football legend Mané Garrincha (1933–1983), who won the 1958 and 1962 World Cup with the Brazil national team. The current name is the result of a naming rights deal between the Arena BSB and Banco de Brasília.[3]
In 1974, the works on Estádio Mané Garrincha were completed. It was built when Garrincha was approximately 40 years old. The inaugural match was played on March 10 of that year, when Corinthians beat CEUB 2–1. The first goal of the stadium was scored by Corinthians' Vaguinho.
On March 2, 1996, it hosted the last concert of the legendary Brazilian band Mamonas Assassinas, after that the group suffered an airplane accident which left no survivors.
The old stadium's attendance record currently stands at 51,200, set on December 20, 1998, when Gama beat Londrina 3–0 at the 1998 Série B final, which gave Gama its first national trophy and consequent promotion to Série A in 1999.[6][needs update]
On December 8, 2007, the final of the first edition of the Copa do Brasil de Futebol Feminino, won by Mato Grosso do Sul/Saad, was hosted at Estádio Mané Garrincha.[7]
Brazil won the first game since the reopening of the stadium 3–0 against Japan on June 15, 2013, in the 2013 FIFA Confederations Cup.
In FIFA's 2014 World Cup, the stadium hosted 7 matches, including the 3rd-place playoff.
The Mané Garrincha Stadium was demolished in 2010 to give way to a new stadium with a capacity of 72,788 fans and in order to reach the requirements for the 2014 World Cup, which was held in Brazil. The stadium was renamed in early 2010 to the Estádio Nacional Mané Garrincha[8] and the construction began in April of the same year. The reconstruction involves dismantling the lower tier and retaining the upper tier into the new rectangular bowl, and reducing the size of the playing field so that the stadium can be a football-specific stadium.

The Government of the Federal District (GDF) has proposed several works of improvement for the Central Zone of Brasília after the reconstruction of the stadium, the additional cost of R$360 million, with completion scheduled for 2015, including:[59]
Between the interventions planned in the Central Area of Brasília, near the National Stadium Mane Garrincha, is the implementation of the Urban Project of Roberto Burle Marx, which provides for an improvement in landscaping between the Road Pilot Plan, and the Brasília TV Tower through the construction of water mirrors, bike paths, sidewalks, gardens and benches.[62]
