The Ryan McBride Brandywell Stadium (Irish: Tobar an Fhíoruisce, translates to "the well of pure water"), more commonly referred to as Brandywell, is a football stadium in the city of Derry/Londonderry, Northern Ireland. It opened in 1928 and since then has hosted the home matches of League of Ireland Premier Division club Derry City.

Between 1932 and 2016, greyhound racing took place at Brandywell.

Since 2018, NIFL Championship club Institute have also played home games at the stadium as a temporary measure after their former home, the Riverside Stadium, was destroyed by flooding in August 2017.
