Prenton Park is a football stadium in the area of Prenton, Birkenhead, Merseyside, England. It is the home ground of Tranmere Rovers Football Club since opening in 1912, and formerly the home ground of Liverpool Reserves and Liverpool Women. The ground has had several rebuilds, with the most recent occurring in 1995 in response to the requirement of the Taylor Report to become all-seater. The stadium now holds 16,587 in four stands: the Kop, the Johnny King Stand, the Main Stand and the Cowshed for away supporters.

Attendances at the ground have fluctuated over its hundred-year history. Its largest-ever crowd was 24,424 for a 1972 FA Cup match between Tranmere Rovers and Stoke City. In 2010, an average of 5,000 fans attended each home game.
