Estadio Eladio Rosabal Cordero was a multi-purpose stadium in Heredia, Costa Rica. The stadium held 8,700 people and opened in 1949. It was mostly used for football matches and was the home stadium of Herediano.

The stadium is named after Herediano legend Eladio Rosabal Cordero, who founded the club in 1921. The stadium was demolished in 2020 to build a new stadium for the team; the stadium will also be named after Rosabal, though it will also be referred to as Transcomer Arena for sponsorship purposes.
