Karaiskakis Stadium (Greek: Γήπεδο Γεώργιος Καραϊσκάκης, is in the Neo Faliro area of Piraeus, Greece. It is the home ground of Olympiacos F.C. and is named after Georgios Karaiskakis, hero of the Greek War of Independence, who was mortally wounded in this area.
It was used during the 1896 Summer Olympics as Neo Phaliron Velodrome where Frenchman Paul Masson took the three track cycling gold medals.
It was renovated during the 1960s and was completely rebuilt in 2004 into a 33,334 capacity, all seater stadium, ready for the football competition of the 2004 Summer Olympics.
