Donnybrook Stadium, Rugby stadium in Donnybrook, Ireland
Donnybrook Stadium is a rugby facility located in Donnybrook, Dublin, equipped with spectator amenities. It provides seating for approximately 6,000 people with a covered grandstand accommodating 2,500 spectators and serves as a venue for rugby matches and various sporting events.
The stadium opened in 1964 and served as the primary home for Leinster Rugby until 2007. After Leinster relocated to RDS Arena, it became the home for smaller local rugby clubs.

In 2012 the stadium hosted an American football game between two United States high school teams. This event demonstrated the venue's range beyond traditional rugby competitions.
