Venues
The South American U-17 Championship was initially scheduled to take place in Ecuador in 2021. The COVID-19 epidemic forced the cancellation of the competition, although Ecuador was still given the go-ahead to host the South American U-17 Championship in 2023. Ecuador will host the event for the fourth time, having done so in 1988 (under-16 edition), 2007, and 2011.
As host cities, Guayaquil and Quito were chosen. The Estadio George Capwell and the Estadio Christian Bentez Betancourt will both serve as the sites for the first stage's matches in Guayaquil. The Stadium Rodrigo Paz Delgado and the Estadio Olmpico Atahualpa will both host games during the final stage in Quito.
