Gimnasio Juan de la Barrera (formally known as Gimnasio Olímpico Juan de la Barrera) is a Mexico City arena used most prominently for basketball. It was constructed for the 1968 Olympics and sometimes hosts non-CMLL wrestling shows in the nation's capital. AAA runs many of its TV tapings from the Distrito Federal here, and it also has held shows for lower-level groups with high aspirations, such as Robles Promotions and NWA Mexico.
The heyday for Gimnasio Juan de la Barrera as a wrestling venue came in 1993, when over half of AAA's TV tapings that year took place there. In 1994 AAA went back to existing as a pure touring promotion, but they returned to this building several times when they ran Mexico City.
