Cricket National Stadium, previously known as Queen's Park, is the name of a cricket stadium complex in River Road, Grenada in the Caribbean and was a location for the 2007 Cricket World Cup.

After being rebuilt in 2000, the new complex was damaged in October 2004 as a direct result from Hurricane Ivan. The pitch is noted for being elongated towards the Pavilion end, giving a more baseball type look to the ground. The stadium was funded by the People's Republic of China.

After the success of its use in the world cup, the stadium has been used recently for youth games in the country including matches against touring sides from England.
