Viborg Stadion also known as Energi Viborg Arena due to a name sponsorship, is a football stadium located in Viborg, Denmark. It is the home ground of Viborg FF and has a capacity of 9,566. It was one of four venues for the 2011 UEFA European Under-21 Football Championship, hosting three matches in Group B and a semi-final.

The old stadium from 1931 was torn down in 2001 to make room for a new stadium with 9,566 seats. The new stadium came with covered seating and heating in the field. The extension around the new stadium was finished in 2007, and there was added ekstra standing places for both home and away team fans. In 2008 two big screens were added to the new stadium.
