Stadionul Farul is a multi-purpose stadium in Constanța, Romania. It is currently used mostly for football matches and until 2021 was the home ground of Farul Constanța. The stadium also functions as an athletics arena, with track and field athletics facilities. In 1970, Stadionul Farul was the first stadium in Romania to host a floodlit football match.[1]

The stadium has played host to the Romania national football team, in the World Cup 2006 Qualification, UEFA Euro 2008 qualifying and 2010 FIFA World Cup qualification.

The stadium is currently in bad condition. Many of the seats in the stands are missing or are damaged. In general, the stadium is in need of renovation. In 2016, Farul returned to play in the facility. It is maintained in an operating condition, but there are currently no plans to renew or renovate the stadium. In 2018, supporters of Farul have asked the municipality in an open letter for financial support, also in order to renovate or rebuild the stadium. No plans to renew the facility have been published yet.[2]
