Fredericia Stadium (Danish: Fredericia Stadion Danish pronunciation: [fʁeðəˈʁetɕæ stɛˌtjʌn]; currently known as Monjasa Park Danish pronunciation: [mʌnˈtɕæsæ pʰɑːk] for sponsorship reasons) is a football stadium in Fredericia, Denmark. It opened on 2 September 2006, as the new home ground for Danish 1st Division club FC Fredericia.

It has a capacity of 4,000, of which 1,400 are seated.

In May 2020, Fredericia Municipality announced at a press conference plans for upgrading Monjasa Park.[7] A new stand with a seating capacity of 1,400 and terracing able to hold 500 away-fans were planned for construction before the end of the year.[7][8] The plans would see stadium infrastructure improve and prepare FC Fredericia for a possible future promotion to the Danish Superliga, which mayor Jacob Bjerregaard stated could happen within the "next 2–3 years".[9]
