Amini Park is a cricket ground in Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea. Part of the Bisini Parade sports complex in the suburb of Boroko, it is the headquarters of Cricket PNG.

The ground is named for the Amini family, several of whom have played cricket for Papua New Guinea (both the men's and women's teams).

The ground has seen the men's team play Australia, the West Indies and Victoria. The women's team played Japan in a three-match series at the ground in September 2006.

In May 2016, the ground hosted its first List A match when Papua New Guinea defeated Kenya in the 2015–17 ICC World Cricket League Championship. In October 2016, the ground hosted its first first-class match when Papua New Guinea defeated Namibia in the 2015–17 ICC Intercontinental Cup.
