It has been played, since its creation in 1971, at the La Romareda Stadium.

After the death of the former soccer player Carlos Lapetra in 1995, the trophy changed its name in his honor, so since the 1998 edition, it has been held under the name Memorial Carlos Lapetra .

History

The first edition of the Trofeo Ciudad de Zaragoza was held in May 1971, approved with a budget of 3 million pesetas that was expected to be obtained from ticket sales. The first participants were Real Zaragoza, Anderlecht and Colonia, which opened the list of winners. The initiative arose from the director and councilor for festivities, Antonio Mur, encouraged by various sectors of the city.

Initially it was played at the end of the season (in May), later becoming the presentation match for the Zaragoza fans (in August). Currently it is held in autumn, coinciding with the Pilar festivities, when some days of competition have already been held.

In the first editions, the Trophy was held over several days and with four teams fighting for the final victory, being one of the most important summer tournaments. This would last until 1985 when it began to be played in a single match, except for the 1989, 1990 and 2010 editions.
