The Rakvere linnastaadion, that is, Rakvere City (or Municipal) Stadium, is a multi-purpose stadium at Kastani puiestee 12 (12 Chestnut Boulevard) in Rakvere, Estonia. The stadium has 1,785 seats and is the home of the Rakvere JK Tarvas football team.
Although a small venue, the stadium hosted three group stage matches of the 2012 UEFA European Under-19 Football Championship with notable and, later, world-famous players such as Paul Pogba, Harry Kane, and Aleksandar Mitrović running onto the pitch.
The stadium has also hosted an Estonia national football team match, several Europa League qualification matches of Narva Trans, and a season of Estonian top-flight football when Tarvas played in the Meistriliiga in the 2016 season.
On 15 June 2025, 12 youth and adult dance companies with 2,000 dancers were on the stadium field, participating in the Virumaa Dance Festival Virupärane (Viru style or Typically Viru). The festival directors were Egert Eenmaa and Robin Täpp.
