Adokiye Amiesimaka Stadium is a multi-use stadium in Port Harcourt, Nigeria, on the north end of the city in the Omagwa neighbourhood. The stadium has a capacity of 40,000 people.

It was opened in July 2015 with a match between Nigeria and Congo in a qualifier for the Rio Olympics which ended with a 2-1 scoreline success over Congo.[1]

Later that month, Nigerian Premier League squad Dolphins announced they will play the remainder of the 2015 season in the stadium.[2]
