The Vantelin Dome Nagoya, also called the Nagoya Dome, stands in Nagoya in Aichi Prefecture, Japan. Nagoya Dome Co., a Chunichi Shimbun company, owns it. It was built in 1997 and opened on March 15, 1997. The article does not name an architect.

The domed roof is an example of a geodesic dome. Capacity is 36,418 for sports and 49,000 for concerts. The field is artificial turf, with left and right field 328 feet (100 meters) from home plate and center field 400 feet (122 meters). The outfield fence is 16 feet (4.8 meters) high.

The Chunichi Dragons have played their home games here since it opened. The Orix BlueWave and the Kintetsu Buffaloes have also used it. It hosted a group-stage game of the 2024 WBSC Premier12 and a Celine Dion concert on February 3, 1999. The Meijo Line subway serves it at Nagoya Dome-mae Yada station.
