The Saida Municipal Stadium (Arabic: ملعب صيدا البلدي‎), also known as the Martyr Rafic Hariri Stadium (Arabic: ملعب الرئيس الشهيد رفيق الحريري),[1] is a 22,600 capacity multi-purpose stadium in Sidon, Lebanon.[2]

The stadium was built in 1999 on the expanded grounds of the old stadium, as one of the venues to host matches during the 2000 AFC Asian Cup that was held in Lebanon.[3]
