Newmarket Stadium is the proposed home for Wakefield Trinity Wildcats in Stanley, Wakefield, West Yorkshire, England. It will replace Belle Vue which has been home to the rugby league club for over 100 years.[1]

Wakefield were hoping to move into the stadium for the start of the 2015 season but work has never started on the project due to the council denying them planning permission.[2][3]
