Yarrow Stadium is situated in the central suburb of Westown in New Plymouth, Taranaki, New Zealand, with main vehicle access off Maratahu St. During the 2011 Rugby World Cup the ground was titled "Stadium Taranaki" to conform with the IRB's "clean stadium" policy.
The primary tenant of this 25,000-capacity stadium is the Taranaki representative team in the country's principal rugby union competition, the ITM Cup. The stadium also occasionally hosts matches of the Hurricanes Super Rugby team in the same sport, although that team's primary home is in Wellington.
