Stadium Taranaki – the best regional stadium in Aotearoa/New Zealand.
The rebuilt East Stand and the redeveloped West Stand. The venue has capacity for 22,000 fans and is scalable to the same as the old stadium for major sporting events.
Ngāti Te Whiti hosted a blessing of the new stand in April 2025. Taranaki Regional Council has worked closely with the hapū on the design of the East Stand and users will see this through the many cultural design elements in the new facility.
The new East Stand is closer to the main pitch and is double-sided so spectators can watch two different fields.

The East Stand hospitality area is suitable for a wide range of users including conferences, trade shows and other non-sport events, both public and private.
The new East Stand’s facilities include public toilets, changing rooms, showers and food/beverage areas.
