Manahan Stadium (Indonesian: Stadion Manahan) is a multi-purpose stadium in Surakarta, Central Java, Indonesia. Manahan is the first stadium in Indonesia which hosts the biggest disabled sporting event in Southeast Asia, the 2011 ASEAN Para Games. The stadium was opened on 21 February 1998. It is currently used mostly for association football matches and is used as the home venue for Persis Solo. This stadium now holds 20,000 spectators after the renovation.

Judging from the geographical location, the location of Manahan Stadium in Solo is fairly strategic. Stands majestically in the middle of the city center, adjacent to airports, hotels, highways and shopping malls make Manahan Stadium as one of the most representative in the organization of sporting events of national and international scale. The stadium is located in the center of the city of Solo, precisely at Jalan Adi Sucipto, Manahan, Banjarsari, Solo. It is 9 km away from the Adisumarmo International Airport.[1]

Manahan Stadium was subsequently chosen to host the 2022 ASEAN Para Games and the 2023 FIFA U-17 World Cup matches, including the semi-finals and final.[2] It also acted as the home ground for the Indonesia national football team for the 2024 ASEAN Championship.
