Hiiu Stadium (Estonian: Hiiu staadion) is a football stadium in Tallinn, Estonia. Opened in 1936, it is the home ground of Nõmme Kalju FC.[2][3] The stadium is located about 8 km southwest of the city centre, in the district of Nõmme. The address of the stadium is Pidu tänav 11, Tallinn.

Hiiu Stadium has been Nõmme Kalju's home since its opening in 1936 until the club's dissolution in 1944 due to Soviet occupation of Estonia, and again since the club's re-establishment in 1997. The stadium has undergone several renovation periods, most recently in 2023–2024.

On 10 September 2011, the highest recorded attendance was set, when 2,730 people watched a football match between hosts JK Nõmme Kalju and FC Flora Tallinn.[4][5]
