The Estádio das Antas (officially Estádio do Futebol Clube do Porto) was the third (and longest occupied) stadium of the Portuguese football side FC Porto. It was in use from 1952 to 2004, replacing the earlier Campo da Constituição and later replaced by Estádio do Dragão.

On May 28, 1952 The Estádio das Antas was inaugurated with the presence of the Portuguese President, General Craveiro Lopes. Urgel Horta was, at the time, the President of FC Porto.
