Nicolae Dobrin Stadium was a multi-purpose stadium in Piteşti, Romania, named in 2003 after football player Nicolae Dobrin (1947–2007). It was mostly used for football matches as the home ground of FC Argeş Piteşti.

The stadium had a capacity of 15,000 people, making it the 18th largest stadium in Romania, however the largest crowd ever recorded was of 28,000 people for the 1979–80 European Champions' Cup match between FC Argeş and Nottingham Forest. It was originally named "Stadionul 1 Mai" but changed simply to "Stadionul Municipal" immediately after the 1989 Romanian Revolution. The stadium's name was changed to Nicolae Dobrin in 2002.[1]

The stadium was demolished in the summer of 2023.[2]
