Plant City Stadium is a stadium in Plant City, Florida with a capacity of about 6,000.

In 2012, the stadium became the home pitch for several VisionPro Institute developmental soccer teams, including VSI Tampa Bay FC of USL Pro, VSI Tampa Bay FC of the USL Premier Development League, and VSI Tampa Bay FC of the USL W-League. In early 2020, the Tampa Bay Vipers of the XFL renovated and took over the facility for use as its practice facilities.
