Estádio Municipal de Rio Maior is a multi-use stadium in Rio Maior, Portugal. It is currently used mostly for football matches and is the home stadium of UD Rio Maior. The stadium is able to hold 7 000 people and opened in 2003.[1] [2] It served as the home stadium for Sporting B in their first season, before moving to Alcochete.[3] U.D. Vilafranquense hosted games at the ground in their debut LigaPro season in 2019–20, due to the inadequate facilities at their own ground.[4]
