The Nouste Camp (IPA: [ˈnɔste ˈkamp] (listen) is a football stadium and a sports complex located in the Pau suburb of Bizanos in France.[1] The home of Pau FC, it is the smallest stadium in the 2022–23 Ligue 2, with an all-seated capacity of 4,031.[2]

Opened as Nouveau Stade de Pau in 2018, the stadium is Pau FC's new football-specific stadium. After renovations were completed in 2021 to comply with Ligue 2 requirements, the ground was renamed Nouste Camp, which means "Our Ground" in Béarnese. The complex includes several football pitches, including a training pitch with artificial turf.

The club used a variety of grounds in Pau for home matches in the years between 1959 and 2018. Pau FC had to groudshare with French rugby union heavyweight Section Paloise since 1991, when Section left their historic Stade de la Croix du Prince.[3]
