Hippos Stadium is a pesäpallo stadium located in Jyväskylä, Finland. Since its opening in 1948, it has been the home field of the Jyväskylän Kiri, a Ykköspesis team. It is also home of the Kirittäret, a Superpesis team.

Hippos Stadium is a traditional pesäpallo stadium. The fence behind the 3-side has prompted locals to repeatedly urge hitters to "hit through the fence".
