León Stadium, Association football stadium in León de Los Aldama, Mexico.

León Stadium is a football ground in León, Guanajuato, with a capacity of 31,297. Its curving grey upper facade carries large green letters reading "ESTADIO", a shield-shaped crest and "LEON", above a band of horizontal grey louvers. Below, a white base section has a row of green rectangular panels and two small yellow-and-white shield emblems.

Construction began in August 1965 and was finished by the end of 1966. The stadium opened on 1 February 1967 with a match between Santos and River Plate, which Santos won 2–1. It hosted football at the 1968 Summer Olympics and matches of the 1970 and 1986 FIFA World Cups, including the 1970 quarter-final between West Germany and England. In 2023 Grupo Pachuca cancelled a planned new stadium and opted to renovate this one.

Fans call the ground Nou Camp, a nickname the sources record without explaining its origin. It is the home of Club León of Liga MX, and the crest and green lettering on the grey facade mark the club's identity. The stadium also hosted matches of the 1968 Olympic football tournament and two World Cups.

The stadium sits at coordinates 21.11554, -101.65774 in León de Los Aldama, Guanajuato. Club León left the ground on 9 October 2020 after a ruling on the transfer of ownership and played the rest of that season at Estadio Victoria, home of Club Necaxa, before returning after one match. Renovations were announced for the ground on 15 September 2023 after the new stadium project was cancelled.

The 1970 quarter-final between West Germany and England ended 3–2 after extra time, with Franz Beckenbauer and Uwe Seeler scoring for West Germany. England had led 2–0. The match avenged England's 1966 final win and drew a crowd at the Estadio León.
