This is a list of American Association stadiums used during the league's existence from 1902 to 1962 and 1969 to 1997. It does not include stadiums used by teams of the American Association (AA) in existence from 1882 to 1891, which was a major league.

There are 42 stadiums known to have been used by the league located among 26 municipalities. Of the stadiums with known opening dates, the oldest to have hosted AA games was Borchert Field (1888), home of the Milwaukee Brewers; the newest was Zephyr Field (1997), home of the New Orleans Zephyrs. The highest known seating capacity was 62,000 at Superdome, the New Orleans Pelicans home, though it was actually designed for football. The highest capacity of a stadium designed for baseball was 21,698 at Metropolitan Stadium, where the Minneapolis Millers played their home games. The stadium with the lowest known capacity was Central Athletic Park, home of the Columbus Senators, which seated only 3,000.
