Deir ez-Zor Municipal Stadium (Arabic: ملعب دير الزور البلدي) is a multi-purpose stadium in Deir ez-Zor, Syria. It is used mostly for football matches. The stadium has a capacity of 13,000 spectators.[1]

However, the stadium was heavily damaged between 2015 and 2017, while being occupied by the militants of the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant.[2] On 26 December 2023, the training sports facility was opened on the western side of the municipal stadium, which includes two football fields, along with its facilities, including bathrooms, changing rooms and a seminar.
