Scotland is famous for its exciting sport of football! This article lists the biggest football stadiums in Scotland, ordered from the largest to the smallest. To be on this list, a stadium must be able to hold at least 1,000 people.

The biggest football stadium in Scotland is Celtic Park. It can hold an amazing 60,411 fans! The three largest stadiums in Scotland are all found in Glasgow, which is Scotland's biggest city. These are Celtic Park, Hampden Park (where the Scottish national team plays its home games), and Ibrox Stadium. Other large and well-known stadiums include Rugby Park in Kilmarnock, Almondvale Stadium in Livingston, and Pittodrie Stadium in Aberdeen.

Many of the biggest stadiums are home to teams in the Scottish Premiership, which is the top football league in Scotland. Smaller stadiums like Somerset Park in Ayr and Firhill Stadium in Glasgow are home to teams in the Scottish Championship, which is the league just below the Premiership.
