OPERATIONAL MAP
Stadium access – Stade Sylvio Cator
GETTING TO THE GROUND
Transport is severely disrupted. Tap-taps (shared taxis) are the local norm, but are currently unsafe for foreign visitors. Private armored transport is recommended.
Warning: CRITICAL: The area surrounding the stadium is often controlled by rival gangs. Do not travel to this ground without professional security details.
The stadium is an aging concrete arena. Seating is mostly in the main stand. Facilities are basic and often suffer from power or water outages.
PROHIBITED ITEMS
- Bags larger than A4
- Professional cameras
- Pyrotechnics
- Items that could be used as projectiles
CRITICAL
The ground has been vandalized and occupied by armed groups in recent years. No formal 'Away Sector' is currently reliable or secured.
Exit routes & evacuation
Only one primary exit route exists via Rue Oswald Durand, which is a frequent location for civil unrest.
Exit via the main tunnels immediately to armored vehicles. Do not loiter outside the perimeter fence.
MISSION LOGISTICS
Hub

TACTICAL INTEL
GATHERING POINT
CENTRAL MEETING POINT
Champ de Mars (AVOID)
Formerly the primary park and gathering spot, it is now extremely dangerous. It is only included as a landmark; fans should gather in secure hotels.
POLICE PROFILE
OVERSTRETCHED
Haitian National Police (PNH) are severely overstretched. They rarely maintain a presence near the stadium without armored support. Expect little to no official help.
