Litis Stadium, Football stadium in Leederville, Australia.
Litis Stadium is a football venue in Leederville with a natural grass pitch and seating across multiple levels. The facility includes a grandstand with a roof covering some seats and an earthen hill that provides additional standing and viewing areas.
The site opened in 1959 as Lake Monger Velodrome, serving cycling events including competitions during the 1962 Commonwealth Games. It was later transformed to serve football matches under its current name.
The stadium hosts the annual Community World Cup, organised by the Latin American Association of WA. The tournament brings together teams from the region's communities, and Floreat Athena FC, the stadium's sole lessee since 1985, plays its home matches here.
The stadium is located in Leederville, roughly 3 kilometers from central Perth and accessed via Britannia Road. Daily operation includes floodlighting for evening events, allowing matches and activities throughout the day and into the night.
The name honours Evangelos and Despo Litis, whose $150,000 donation to Floreat Athena FC in 1998 secured the naming rights. The club has been the stadium's sole lessee since moving there in 1985.
