Kings Park Stadium, also known for sponsorship reasons as ABSA Stadium, is a stadium in the Kings Park Sporting Precinct in Durban, South Africa, which was originally built in 1891 and extensively renovated in the mid-1990s. It has a capacity of 55,000 and is used for both rugby union and football (soccer). The stadium currently hosts the following teams:

In 1997, as part of his History World Tour, Michael Jackson performed his final full concert here.
