Wrocław Stadium (Polish: Stadion Wrocław), known for sponsorship reasons as Tarczyński Arena Wrocław since 2021, is a UEFA Category Four association football stadium built for the 2012 UEFA European Football Championship. The Stadium is located on aleja Śląska (English: Silesian Avenue) in the district of Fabryczna, Wrocław. It is the home stadium of the Śląsk Wrocław football team playing in the Polish Ekstraklasa. The stadium has a capacity of 42,771 spectators, all seated and all covered.

Wrocław Stadium is the largest arena in Ekstraklasa and the third largest in the country (after the Kazimierz Górski National Stadium in Warsaw and the Silesian Stadium in Chorzów).

Stadium construction began in April 2009 and was completed in September 2011.

Stadium opening took place at 10 September 2011 with the first sporting event being a boxing fight, between Tomasz Adamek and Vitali Klitschko for the WBC heavyweight title, which is also considered as the first Heavyweight title fight held in Poland. The first football match, between Śląsk Wrocław and Lechia Gdańsk, was played on 28 October 2011. Śląsk won the match 1–0 and Johan Voskamp was the first goalscorer at the new stadium.
