Stadium Australia, commercially known as ANZ Stadium, is a multi-purpose stadium located in the Sydney Olympic Park, in Sydney, Australia. The stadium, which in Australia is sometimes referred to as Sydney Olympic Stadium, Homebush Stadium or simply the Olympic Stadium, was completed in March 1999 at a cost of A$690 million to host the 2000 Summer Olympics.

The stadium was originally built to hold 110,000 spectators, making it the largest Olympic Stadium ever built and the second largest stadium in Australia after the Melbourne Cricket Ground which held more than 120,000 before its re-design in the early 2000s. In 2003, reconfiguration work was completed to shorten the north and south wings, and install movable seating. These changes reduced the capacity to 83,500 for a rectangular field and 82,500 for an oval field with dimensions of 170m x 128m. Awnings were also added over the north and south stands, allowing most of the seating to be under cover.

Record attendances for various events include:

  • 114,714: 2000 Olympics Closing Ceremony
  • 109,874: 2000 Wallabies vs All Blacks Bledisloe Cup
  • 107,999: Storm v Dragons 1999 NRL Grand Final
  • 98,364: Adele: Adele Live 2017
