Yanmar Stadion (formerly Mitsubishi Forkliftstadion and Almere City Stadion) is a multi-purpose stadium in Almere, Netherlands. The stadium primarily hosts association football matches and is the home ground of Almere City FC.[4] The stadium was built in 2005 with a capacity of 3,000 spectators. In January 2020, the club completed a new grandstand, increasing the capacity to 4,501.[5] The grandstand affords covered passages to the main club building, as well as to the new club offices which were completed in spring of 2020.[6]

Once the stadium was used for American football. It is named after Japanese sponsor Yanmar.
