HaMoshava Stadium, Football stadium in Petah Tikva, Israel.
HaMoshava Stadium is a football ground in Petah Tikva designed with two main seating sections that together hold around 11,500 spectators. The western stand provides approximately 5,000 seats while the eastern side offers additional capacity with contemporary viewing facilities.
The stadium was constructed beginning in 2007 and opened at the end of 2011, marking its emergence during a modern expansion phase in the city. It was built to serve local football teams and has become a key venue in the region since then.
The name HaMoshava references Petah Tikva's historical designation as Em HaMoshavot, which means Mother of the Settlements in Hebrew, reflecting the venue's connection to local roots. This naming choice ties the stadium directly to the city's identity and past.
The ground regularly hosts matches for two local football clubs and is generally accessible to visitors on match days. It is advisable to check ahead for upcoming events and arrive early to secure good seating or a relaxed visit.
The ground was selected as one of four venues across Israel to host youth football matches during the 2013 European tournament, bringing international junior teams to the city. This event brought high-level European youth football to the area and gave the venue international recognition.
