The 1964 CONMEBOL Pre-Olympic Tournament took place during May and June 1964. It was the 2nd CONMEBOL Pre-Olympic Tournament.

Bolivia, Paraguay and Venezuela did not participate. Argentina and Brazil qualified for the 1964 Summer Olympics.[1]

During the match between Argentina and Peru on 24 May 1964, after a goal scored by Peru was disallowed, fans tried to invade the pitch. The police threw gas to contain disturbances, which led to a stampede, causing 328 deaths.[2]After this incident, all of the remaining matches of the tournament were cancelled.
