Antalyaspor Kulübü is a Turkish professional multi-sport club based in Antalya, on Turkey's Mediterranean coast. Founded on 2 July 1966 through the merger of three local sides Yenikapı Suspor, İlk Işık and Ferrokromspor. The club's football branch is best known by its nickname “Akrepler” (Scorpions) and plays in the Süper Lig, the top tier of Turkish football.
Antalyaspor's home ground is the Antalya Stadium, a fully covered, 32-537-seat arena opened in 2015 whose rooftop solar array generates enough power to offset the venue's entire monthly electricity use. The club's colours are the city's traditional red and white, and its crest incorporates Antalya's historic Yivli Minare mosque.
Domestically, the Antalyaspor have won the TFF First League (second tier) twice (1981–82 and 1985–86) and finished runners-up in the Turkish Cup in 2000 and 2021 the latter campaign also earning a Turkish Super Cup appearance. Antalyaspor first reached European competition via the 1997 UEFA Intertoto Cup and have since featured in the UEFA Cup.
Beyond football, Antalyaspor maintains departments in athletics, volleyball, basketball, swimming and several martial arts, reflecting its charter as a citywide sporting association. The club is currently chaired by Sinan Boztepe and coached by former Turkish international Emre Belözoğlu, who took charge in January 2025.
