Balmoor (also known as Balmoor Stadium) is an association football ground in the Scottish town of Peterhead, Aberdeenshire. It is home to Scottish Football League Second Division side Peterhead F.C. It has a capacity of 4000 spectators of which 1000 can be seated. Thus, the ground is some way off fulfilling Premier League criteria.
The ground was opened in 1997, after Peterhead's old ground, Recreation Park was sold off to supermarket company Safeway. The standard of the facilities at Balmoor was one of the main reasons why Peterhead F.C. were elected to the Scottish Football League in 2000 along with Elgin City F.C.
