Bloomfield Stadium, Association football stadium in Tel Aviv, Israel
Bloomfield Stadium is a football stadium in Tel Aviv with a single-tier layout along three sides and a double-tier east stand. The venue holds approximately 29,400 spectators with direct views of the playing field.
The stadium opened in 1962 with financial support from Canadian Jewish organizations, particularly the Bloomfield family. The first match featured Hapoel playing against Shimshon Tel Aviv.
Three professional football clubs from Tel Aviv use this stadium as their home ground: Hapoel, Maccabi, and Bnei Yehuda, making it a central gathering place for fans and a defining part of the city's sporting life.
The stadium sits between Hatkuma, She'erit Israel and Hathiya streets, west of Groningen Garden. The Red Line's Bloomfield Stadium station is southwest of the ground, and bus routes 1, 25, 40, 41, 42, 46, 125, 142 and 418 also stop nearby.
The 2016–2019 rebuild demolished the old structures beneath the stands and replaced the pitch with hybrid grass, at a final cost of about 500 million shekels. The old Basa Stadium stands were moved to Kiryat Shalom in 1962, and the adjacent Basa grove became Groningen Garden.
