The Bosuilstadion is an association football stadium in the city of Antwerp, Belgium. The stadium was opened in 1923 and has been the home of Royal Antwerp ever since. It has a capacity of 21,000, of which 800 are indoor VIP seats. It is located in the district of Deurne.

The Bosuilstadion hosted the 1964 European Cup Winners' Cup Final replay, which sealed the victory of Sporting Clube de Portugal against MTK Budapest FC. It also hosted the UEFA Euro 1972 semifinal between Belgium and West Germany, won by West Germany. Many friendly international games of Belgium were played at the Bosuil, many of which were against the Netherlands. However, the stadium has not hosted an international game since a friendly match of Germany against Brazil in 1988.
