Forsyth Barr Stadium is a fully covered multi-purpose venue in Dunedin, New Zealand, designed by Jasmax and Populous and completed in 2011. Known colloquially as "The Glasshouse" for its resemblance to a horticultural hothouse, the stadium replaced Carisbrook as the home of the Highlanders in Super Rugby and the Otago Rugby Football Union in the domestic Mitre 10 Cup. Opened by Prime Minister John Key on 5 August 2011, it hosted four matches during the 2011 Rugby World Cup and has since accommodated major music tours and international sporting events, including matches in the 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup.
