AEK Arena – Georgios Karapatakis sits on European Union Avenue in Larnaca and has never had another name since it opened in 2016. The ground was built by ZEMCO GROUP for Balltown Holdings, the company set up by AEK Larnaca, and it carries UEFA Category 4 certification. The surface is natural grass.

What marks this place is the capacity. The official website lists 7,198 seats, whereas other sources give 8,058; the discrepancy sits in the books without a clean resolution. The opening match drew 5,300 spectators against Aris Limassol on October 17, 2016. No all-time attendance record has been pinned down in the sources.

AEK Larnaca plays its home fixtures here, and AEK Athens FC has stepped in for its own matches. The Cyprus national team has used the ground since 2021, hosting qualifiers for UEFA Euro 2024, the UEFA Nations League, and the 2026 FIFA World Cup. Matches against Kosovo, Latvia, and San Marino have been staged here. The venue also hosted group stage games for the 2024 UEFA European Under-17 Championship, with Italy meeting Poland and Sweden facing Poland.

The address is European Union Avenue, Larnaca, Cyprus, and the official website is https://aekarena.com.cy/.
