Fouad Chehab Stadium (Arabic: ملعب فؤاد شهاب), also known as Jounieh Municipal Stadium (Arabic: ملعب جونية البلدي), is a multi-use stadium in Jounieh, Lebanon. It is currently used mostly for football matches, and has a capacity of 5,000.
In 1959, president Fouad Chehab commissioned the French architect Michel Écochard to develop a plan for the stadium. In 1964, the construction of the Jounieh Municipal Stadium was completed, surrounded by an Olympic-sized track and a covered grandstand with a capacity of 7,500 spectators. The complex also includes a basketball and volleyball hall, with two stands that can accommodate 2,000 seated and 3,500 standing spectators. In 1994, at the initiative of minister Georges Frem, the stadium was renamed Fouad Chebab Stadium in honor of the late president.
