The stadium was named after Andrés Guazurary (1778?–?), a military and caudillo of the province who served in the Army of the North of Manuel Belgrano, and in the Artiguista Army during the Portuguese conquest of the Banda Oriental, as General Commander. He died in Rio de Janeiro in 1825. Guazurary had also a brief tenure as governor of the province between 1815 and 1816.
