Netanya Stadium, Football stadium in Netanya, Israel.
Miriam Stadium, known as Netanya Stadium, is a football ground in the Kiryat Sapir neighbourhood of Netanya with 13,610 seats in two stands, east and west, each holding close to 7,000. Two arched metal beams above the stands carry the roof and have become the ground's identifying feature. The stadium covers 82 dunams within a 163-dunam complex.
Construction of the stadium began in 2005 after the city secured funds from selling the old Sar-Tov Stadium land. It officially opened on October 30, 2012.
The ground is named after Miriam Feirberg, mayor of Netanya from 1993 to 2024; the municipality voted for the honour on 15 August 2024 and the name Miriam Stadium became official on 4 March 2025. Maccabi Netanya plays here, and since 2021 the Israel under-19 team has used it as its home ground.
The stadium sits near the Coastal Railway Line and Netanya Sapir station, making it easy to reach. Visitors should check event schedules in advance to ensure there is activity on the day they plan to visit.
The ground hosted the 2013 UEFA European Under-21 Championship and the 2018 World Lacrosse Championship. These international tournaments show the venue's importance beyond local football matches.
