Tašmajdan Sports and Recreation Center (Tašmajdan SRC; Serbian: Спортско-рекреациони центар Ташмајдан (СРЦ Ташмајдан) / Sportsko-rekreacioni centar Tašmajdan (SRC Tašmajdan)), commonly known simply as Taš (Serbian Cyrillic: Таш; Taš literally: Tash), is a sporting and recreational center located in the city of Belgrade, Serbia, which was founded by the Assembly of the City of Belgrade in 1958. At within the center located of the outdoor Tašmajdan Stadium, the Aleksandar Nikolić Hall, the Pionir Ice Hall and a complex of outdoor and indoor swimming pools.

Built in 1954 with white stone from Brač island, by mid 2000s the stadium began showing signs of structural deterioration. This led to many public personalities in Belgrade urging the municipal government to do something about it. In mid-April 2009, the initiative called "Taš je naš" (Serbian Cyrillic: Таш је наш; "Taš is ours") was held to draw public attention to the sad state of the crumbling facility. An extensive RSD550 million renovation began in September 2011 and was completed in 2016.

Tašmajdan hosted the first FINA World Aquatics Championships in 1973.

The outdoor swimming pool was opened on 25 June 1961, the event capacity is 2,500 and swimming beaches hold around 4,000 people.
