Istalnetoles Olímpies ([ɪstalnɛ'tolɛs o'lɪmpɪɛs], English: National Olympic Stadium) is a Gerenian stadium located in Mergeazes, Maremedres Province. The stadium is owned by the city of Mergeazes, and operated by the city's Public Areas Department.
The stadium currently serves as the home venue for football team Uzenae'ad Mergeazes, and rugby team Mergeazes Union.
The Olympic Stadium was originally planned to be built in Port Isherwood, and have a capacity of 25,000. However, with other two stadiums being constructed in the city, the architects decided to move their project ("a venue worthy of hosting the next MicrOlympics") to Mergeazes. The stadium was constructed over a 150-day period, and although it is smaller than the original project, the name "Olímpies" remained. The stadium was officially opened on September 16, 2012, when Uzenae'ad Mergeazes was beaten by Clementsgrad United 2–0.
The stadium was used as a venue of the 2013 Provinces' Cup, and the 2014 Copa Apollonia.
