List of stadiums in New Zealand

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The following is a list of stadiums in New Zealand, ordered by capacity.

Stadiums with a capacity of 10,000 or larger are included. It can be difficult to determine the exact capacity of a stadium as many have different capacities for different kinds of events (for example, concerts and sporting events) and they may be able to temporarily expand their capacity on special occasions.

An asterisk indicates that tenants only use the venue for some of the matches.
