The stadium hosted games in two separate FIFA World Cups in 1970 and 1986. During both of those tournaments the Estadio Jalisco was the temporary home of the Brazilian national team and today remains a liaison between the people of Guadalajara and the Brazilian national team. The stadium is centrally located in the heart of the neighborhood called Colonia Independencia, and is in front of the Plaza de Toros Nuevo Progreso ("New Progress" Bullring).

The stadium also hosted eight games in the 1999 FIFA Confederations Cup, including the third-place game.

===1970 FIFA World Cup=== The stadium hosted eight matches in the 1970 FIFA World Cup, including six group matches, a quarterfinal, and the semifinal in which Brazil defeated Uruguay 3-1.

===1986 FIFA World Cup=== The stadium hosted six matches in the 1986 FIFA World Cup, including all three group matches involving Brazil, a round-of-16 match, a quarterfinal, and a semifinal. Brazil played in every single game the stadium hosted except one of the semifinals where it was hoped Brazil would play as well but it didn't happen as the French men's national football team defeated Brazil on penalties in the quarterfinals.

== Renovations == On 31 January 2017, Clubes Unidos de Jalisco announced a renovation project to replace seating at the Jalisco, to replace the deteriorating roof, to remodel dressing rooms and add a large 360 degree screen above the field.<ref>{{cite web| url = http://www.mediotiempo.com/futbol/2017/01/31/invierten-15-millones-para-aniversario-57-del-jalisco| title = Invierten 15 millones para aniversario 57 del Jalisco - Mediotiempo| date = 2 January 2017}}</ref> The 360 screen was set to debut during the match vs Tigres UANL on 8 September 2017; however, it was determined that the match would be suspended due to the screen being installed merely 8 meters above the field, thus making it impossible for regular gameplay.<ref>{{cite web| url = http://ligamx.net/cancha/detallenoticia/22079/la-liga-bancomer-mx-informa| title = LIGA MX - Página Oficial de la Liga Mexicana del Fútbol Profesional}}</ref><ref>{{cite web| url = http://www.espn.com.mx/futbol/mexico/nota/_/id/3526620/se-suspende-atlas-vs-tigres-por-problemas-con-la-pantalla-del-jalisco| title = Se suspende Atlas vs Tigres por problemas con la pantalla del Jalisco| date = 9 September 2017}}</ref>
