Teddy Stadium (Hebrew: אצטדיון טדי) is a sports stadium in Jerusalem. Two major Israeli football clubs currently use it as their home ground: Beitar Jerusalem and Hapoel Jerusalem. The Israel national football team also uses it for select home matches.

The stadium is named after long-time Mayor of Jerusalem, Teddy Kollek, who was in office during the time of its initial construction and was one of its prominent advocates.
