The Turner Stadium (Hebrew: אצטדיון טרנר), officially the Yaakov Turner Toto Stadium Be'er Sheva (Hebrew: אצטדיון טוטו באר שבע ע"ש יעקב טרנר) is a football stadium in Be'er Sheva and the home ground of Hapoel Be'er Sheva. It was named after former Be'er Sheva mayor Yaakov Turner.
The stadium has an all-seated capacity of 16,126 seats, with the southern stand named after Arthur Vasermil, for whom the club's previous Vasermil Stadium was named. and is a part of a sports complex which also includes the multi-purpose 3,000-seat Conch Arena, a training field and a swimming pool.
The stadium opened during the early stages of the 2015–16 season, with the club selling a record 12,000 season tickets. However, as it was not ready for the start of the season, Hapoel were forced to play their first home match at the Teddy Stadium in Jerusalem. The first match at the ground was played on 21 September 2015, a 0–0 draw with Maccabi Haifa.
