Moulay Hassan Stadium is a football stadium in the area of El Youssoufia, Rabat, Morocco, which has been the home of FUS Rabat since 2012. The stadium has a seating capacity of 12,000. The stadium was renovated in 2012 and demolished in 2024.[1]

The stadium was demolished in 2024 as part of Morocco's preparations to host the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations and the 2025 FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup[2]. The renovation project included expanding the stadium's capacity to 22,000 and constructing commercial centers within the venue for it to become a true urban stadium,[3] fully integrated with the surrounding public spaces to actively contribute to the life of Morocco's capital. It represents a contemporary and environmentally conscious expression of Moroccan culture. By combining glazed terracotta—an ancestral material and craftsmanship—with cutting-edge technology and engineering, the stadium features an iconic design that rises majestically into the Rabat skyline.[4]
