The Ibn Batouta Stadium or Grand stade of Tangier (Arabic: ملعب ابن بطوطة; Berber languages: ⴰⵏⵏⴰⵔ ⵏ ⵉⴱⵏ ⴱⴰⵜⵓⵜⴰ) is a multi-use stadium in Tangier, Morocco. It is used mostly for football matches and big events such as ceremonies or concerts. The stadium now has a legal capacity of 65,000 after renovation construction finished for hosting the 2022 FIFA Club World Cup. It serves as the new home of IR Tanger, replacing the former Stade de Marchan. The stadium is named after the Moroccan scholar and explorer Ibn Battuta.
