Mytilene Municipal Stadium (Greek: Δημοτικό Στάδιο Μυτιλήνης) is a multi-use stadium in Mytilene, Greece. It is currently used mostly for football matches and is the home stadium of Aiolikos. The stadium holds 3,000 people, all-seated.

Nickname

Stadium's nickname is Tarlas (Greek: Ταρλάς), which is inspired by the old name of the settlement where the stadium is built. The word is originated from a Turkish word, which means tract or field.
