Markievicz Park (Irish: Páirc Marcievicz[1]) is the principal GAA stadium in County Sligo, Ireland, home to the Sligo Gaelic football and hurling teams.

Built in 1955 in Sligo town (due mostly to Seán Forde who single-handedly gathered the funds necessary to build the stadium), it is named after Constance Markievicz, one of the participants of the 1916 Easter Rising, the first woman elected to Dáil Éireann and the first female elected to the British parliament, although she refused to take up her seat there.

A ten-year project to redevelop Markievicz Park completed work in 2009 and cost €2.4 million.
