The Gozo Stadium, formerly known as the Silver Jubilee Ground, is the national stadium of the island of Gozo, Malta. The Gozo Stadium stages matches of the highest division in Gozo, part of the Second Division League and the matches of the Gozo F.C. It approximately holds 4,000 people. It is divided into two sides: the Xewkija side and the Xagħra side. The Xewkija Side is the enclosure area and in the middle, where one can find the VIP area. The Gozo Stadium, to date is the only stadium with natural grass pitch found on the Maltese island of Gozo.

Despite its limited budget, recently a lot of work is being done in order to improve the facilities at the stadium. The main mission of the new board of the GFA is to improve the facilities of the Gozo Stadium in order to reach UEFA and FIFA standards so in the future the stadium could host international matches of the Maltese National Team.
