Martin Stadium is an athletic stadium in the Pacific Northwest, on the Washington State University Campus in Pullman, Washington. The stadium is the home field of the Washington State Cougars. Since 2000, Martin Stadium uses FieldTurf.

Martin Stadium opened in 1972 with a 19-point loss to Utah in front of 20,600 fans. The WSU Cougars played all of their home games at Joe Albi Stadium in Spokane in 1970 and 1971 after Martin stadium was damaged in fire.

In its first season in 1972, the south grandstand, press box, lights, and artificial turf were replaced, and the remaining were replaced later. At that time, the seating capacity was 22,600.

The new concrete grandstand built in 1974 expanded the seating to 26,500.

The stadium has an unusual east-west alignment; instead of conventional north-south.

The stadium was ranked by Sports Illustrated as one of the most difficult stadiums for visiting college football teams.
